The conservative editor of a major newspaper, Dennis Luxford, receives a ransom demand: publish the details of his first-born child or else. Some years earlier, he had a weekend tryst with a left-wing politician, Eve Bowen, now a government Minister and by mutual agreement his paternity has never been publicly acknowledged. In a strange twist the girl is killed before Luxford has a chance to publish the story. Inspector Lynley and Sergeant Havers are in charge of the investigation but are also soon dealing with another kidnapping when Luxford's young son Leo is taken and he again received the same ransom demand. The solution lies in uncovering events from long ago. Meanwhile, Lynley and Helen Clyde's relationship becomes even more complicated due to her friendship with Luxford and her attempt to assist him.

Based on the best-selling novels of Elizabeth George, The Inspector Lynley Mysteries find Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley (also known as the 8th Earl of Asherton) and Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers solving cases of murder that would challenge the savviest of detectives. Divided by class barriers both real and imagined, but united in their efforts to uncover the truth, Lynley and Havers form an unlikely yet successful sleuthing duo. Such a close working relationship is likely to expose their personal lives, and so Lynley often finds himself bearing witness to Havers bruising encounters with the dating scene; while Havers becomes both a punching bag and a shoulder to cry on as Lynley s love-life takes him through marriage, separation and bereavement at one point leading him into a relationship that marks him a murder suspect. From politics to the all-too personal; from smuggling to blackmail and corruption; from Cornwall to the House of Lords; The Inspector Lynley Mysteries find murder lurking in every corner and for Lynley and Havers solving those murders can sometimes come at a very heavy price.

Lynley and Havers are sent to a small village in East Anglia to investigate the murder of an interior designer who was shot inside the house but her body was deliberately moved outside. As the investigation proceeds they discover that the dead woman's sister was raped and committed suicide fifteen years earlier and the perpetrator mysteriously disappeared. These events are somehow connected to the current crime but the perpetrator's son refuses to co-operate with the investigation and attempts suicide to avoid doing so. As the pair close in on the murderer, Havers, becomes trapped in the local pub with several villages and the murderer. During the siege the villager's dark secret is revealed and the reason for the current murder becomes clear and Havers is forced to relive the horror of her recent shooting in order to prevail.

From the mind of mystery maven Agatha Christie comes what is considered to be the original crime-solving couple, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. Christie redefined the conventions of the mystery genre with the creation of Tommy and Tuppence, providing a prototype for many male/female detective teams that followed. Set in the 1920s, this popular television series stars James Warwick and Francesca Annis as the eccentric upper-class couple who take over a floundering detective agency and delight in solving any case that comes their way.

1975至1976年的电视连续剧《艾勒里·昆恩》由曾负责《神探可伦坡》的William Link 和Richard Levinson 负责编写，并模仿昆恩的早期风格。昆恩由吉姆·赫顿出演，并由大卫·韦恩饰演其父，上演1940年代纽约的探案故事。Tom Reese演出昆恩巡官的助手，是系列电视系列剧的固定班底（这个角色曾经在小说、广播与电视节目中出现，但在此电视系列剧出现前未被安排成主要的配角）。电视系列剧的最后，总是会有“向读者挑战”的宣言,大侦探昆恩走进事件现场，并邀请观众亲自去破解谜团。许多媒体都认为这个系列的作品是艾勒里昆恩为电视节目带来的最佳产物。2位编剧后来更是因《神探可伦坡和艾勒里昆恩电视剧》（Columbo and Ellery Queen TV series）的贡献获得1979年爱伦坡特别奖。
