Set 1
"The First Lady of Mystery" sends chills up your spine with four deliciously complex stories of suspense. In Master of the Moor, Colin Firth (Bridget Jones films, Love Actually, Pride and Prejudice) stars as a young man whose love of the wild moors makes him a prime murder suspect. After her best friend disappears, Alice Fielding suspects foul play or murder in Vanity Dies Hard and fears for her life. In The Secret House of Death, newly divorced Susan Townsend makes a grisly discovery in her formerly safe suburban neighborhood. And two women-identical in appearance only-compete for one man in The Double. Who will lose love, and perhaps her life? Featuring all-star casts, as seen on PBS.

Set 2
"The First Lady of Mystery" is back with six more tales of psychological suspense! Bribery and Corruption come between a young man, his widowed father and the married woman they both desire. A woman opens old wounds by nosing into a long-resolved murder in her childhood hometown-to the growing annoyance of her husband in Front Seat. When a surgeon's wife turns up murdered in the fens, the authorities wonder if it's merely A Case of Coincidence. A widow rediscovers life and love with a troubled man who has a mysterious past in A Dark Blue Perfume. In May and June, a childhood competition between two sisters comes to a boil. And a young girl, sent to the country to escape war-ravaged London, discovers the adult world's dark secrets behind The Orchard Walls. As seen on PBS.

Set 3
"The First Lady of Mystery" is back with a nail-biting collection of five suspenseful and provocative psychological thrillers. In Going Wrong, the chance meeting of a pair of former teenage lovers turns into obsessive stalking. When a series of crimes follows a pedophile's release, the police face public outrage in Harm Done. A lottery winner pictures a future filled with philanthropy and love, but his ideals go awry in The Lake of Darkness. The blocked memory of a childhood abduction haunts the victim in The Fallen Curtain. A single woman values her home security, but her new flatmate exhibits a far more casual attitude in You Can't Be Too Careful. As seen on PBS.

Set 4
In these two Inspector Wexford specials, the kindly, compassionate detective investigates the disappearance of his doctor's daughter and an environmental protest that goes horribly wrong. As always, award-winning writer Ruth Rendell weaves incisive social observation into her compelling plots, showing why critics and fans regard her as the reigning queen of the British literary mystery.
