Alistair Maclean's The Catch

THE CATCH is a contemporary and adrenalin charged crime thriller series, based on the best-selling novels by Alistair Maclean, which delivers explosive storylines set against a backdrop of undercov¬er agents and duplicitous villains.

This fast-paced action drama follows the exploits of an interna¬tional crime fighting organisation’s seven top operatives, who ignite the screen with their dynamic, quick witted and sometimes volatile working relationship. Ex-cons themselves, plucked from the criminal underworld for their expertise, ingenuity and the ability to escape seemingly impossible situations, they now support the authorities in the international war on crime. Based in a secret office in the heart of the incredible British Museum in London, fighting crime no governments or police will touch; crossing borders where no one will go, living their lives on probation, with no guarantee when, or if, their freedom will be restored. In the most extreme and dangerous of circum¬stances, just how much can these career criminals be trusted? Can they trust each other?

Hailing from all four corners of the globe, they are united under the inscrutable ex MI6 agent Aleck Michie in a high-octane environment, where each mission sees the team pushed to the limit. One step out of line and their freedom will be gone forever, but can they resist? Crime is their game, their weakness and their world. This is the Catch.
