A murder has taken place. An unkempt, fumbling, cigar smoking detective appears on the scene and must unravel the mystery while matching wits with a brilliant killer. Sound like a familiar story? That's because Prescription: Murder marks the introduction of a certain Lt. Columbo. The play was adapted into the hit Columbo TV pilot starring Peter Falk.
