the first season is a little...intense, but you might be interested in The Bletchley Circle if you haven't seen it? The women in the series were codebreakers at bletchley park, but *can't tell anyone about it* because of the Official Secrets Act. So they just have to tell everyone -- including their husbands, if married -- that they were a secretary or whatever the cover story is during the war. Anyway, the series is about a murder investigation because one is suuuuper bored as a housewife and notices a pattern. But, uh, it's kind of gorey and I had to skip parts of the first season and go to season 2. Your personal squicks may vary.
Also, obviously, Agent Carter. (similar deal, only marvel universe)
