"I didn't have a happy life," Ludvig Bergsson's father told him shortly before his death. Haunted by these words, Ludvig grapples with his father's memory. Had these been the words of a delirious and ailing man, or the truth as his father saw it? Troubled, Ludvig suggests that his university's next annual symposium address one of life's greatest challenges: How might we prepare for its inevitable end? Each guest lecturer grapples with the question of what it means to live a good life, and how to make peace not only with death, but with what may or may not follow. As he listens to their presentations, Ludvig thinks not only of his father, but his own life and family, and the simple and unexpected ways in which he can find new meaning.

For the denizens of Primeval, the world beyond its fields and forests is but a dream. The outcast Cornspike raises her daughter among the creatures and spirits of the forest. The squire Popielski loses his faith and becomes obsessed with a game where progress is attained only by dreaming the right kind of dream. Nonhuman beings --- trees and mushrooms and archangels --- have their Times too, as do inanimate objects, which may be “more important for the world than people.” Yet their stories --- or Times --- are buffeted by the feral history of the 20th century, after war carries Michał the miller away from his family in 1914. Bloodshed, betrayal and the dramas of daily life mark the birth, life and decline of Primeval’s little world and Times, making us consider afresh the stories by which we comprehend our own.

With hundreds of restless guests and staff on site, Nicola knows the clock is ticking to find the killer before they disappear for good.

Caleb Silver --- lovingly referred to as Silver --- was never as warm, loving or empathetic as his two best friends Honey Childs and Malaika Khan. And he never felt nearly as brave.

And as they barrel towards a nasty court case, it becomes clear that Honey knows more than she’s let on. Decades later, Silver is living in London as a mycology professor. His wife has just died. Everything seems to link back to that day in the halls, when he let a bully take his lighter. As the net tightens, Silver must confront his past in a quest for truth --- and vengeance --- unearthing shattering secrets that may destroy them all.

Cabot Cove is perhaps the most divided it's ever been. Between the upcoming mayoral race and the arrival of Lionel Watts, a leading developer, the townsfolk are riled up. With Watts pursuing multiple landowners in order to amass a site for a luxury hotel, seemingly every conversation at Mara’s Luncheonette becomes a debate between those favoring development and more tourist dollars versus conservationists and fans of the town's old-fashioned charm. Then Watts is found dead in the woods. It looks like a heart attack, but Jessica Fletcher suspects someone has made a literal killing in real estate...
