Magazine culturel consacré à la littérature. L'émission proposait des discussions ouvertes entre quatre ou cinq auteurs autour d’un sujet commun, mais également des entrevues individuelles avec un seul auteur. En 15 ans d’existence, Apostrophes est devenu l'émission littéraire emblématique à la télévision française de cette période, notamment grâce à la personnalité de son présentateur Bernard Pivot, la diversité et la qualité de ses intervenants, voire des polémiques qui surgirent épisodiquement lors de l'émission.

L for Larksoken? At first, his victims seem to be chosen entirely at random - women in the wrong place at the wrong time - but then two women employed at the nuclear power station are murdered in quick succession...

When Dr. Edwin Lorrimer, a forensic scientist working at a private laboratory is found killed, Detective Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh is sent to investigate. Dalgliesh had been in the area a few months previously investigating the murder of a young woman found in an abandoned car. There are several suspects: Lorrimer's subordinate, Clifford Bradley, who despises him; the new head of the laboratory, Maxim Howarth, who is jealous of his sister's relationship with him; a colleague, Paul Middlemass, who had a fight with Lorrimer. There is also a gruff and likely unethical policeman who was on the grounds of the laboratory at the time of the killing and a local pathologist who is raising his two young children after his wife leaves him for another man.
