Army of God
When analysis of a small piece of cedar wood from a dig indicates that it is 2,000 years old and originates from the Holy Land, Dr Gillian Magwilde and her team race to uncover the truth. While Magwilde surveys the site, however, a religious extremist acquires the land and declares it Holy Ground. Believing Britain is at war for its Christian soul, the fanatical Christian reawakens a force of violent modern-day crusaders.
Warriors
The discovery of 18th century bones in the Bristol Channel brings to light an extraordinary conspiracy - anyone who has investigated the final journey of the Somerset ship in the last 200 years has died in suspicious circumstances. When presidential candidate Senator Joy and a Ghanaian academic arrive in Bath, the archaeologists question their motives.
The Eternal Fire
The high-risk exploration of secret Celtic chambers beneath the Roman Baths unlocks an ancient love story. Gillian and Ben unravel the tragic tale of Celtic warrior queen Boudicca and Roman soldier Quintanus, while confronting their own past relationship amid the dark and claustrophic chambers.
The Cradle of Civilisation
The looting of Babylonian relics from the Iraq war starts a trail to the team's doorstep and intertwines with the destiny of the Middle East. When an Iraqi archaeologist from Gillian's past enlists the team's help, they discover a sacred tablet predicting the future of Iraq, as well as an opportunistic war-zone looter and a dodgy antiquities dealer whose lives are in danger.
The Lines of War
A British First World War tank containing the burnt remains of six bodies is uncovered in France. Evidence of a war crime soon emerges and Gillian inadvertently ignites an international feud with French and German archaeologists. But when violent events occur at the dig site, it becomes clear someone is trying to cover up the truth.
Follow the Gleam
Steeped in Arthurian legend and the poetry of Tennyson, Gillian's insurmountable obsession drives her team away. Will her brilliant mind and life's research be enough to protect her from Henry Timberdyne and find Tennyson's Gleam?

Homestead Rescue
In the last decade, two million Americans have attempted to leave behind civilization in favor of life off-the-grid – but most have failed. For the hundreds of families who decide to become homesteaders, the learning curve is a steep one. Now comes Homestead Rescue. Struggling homesteaders across the country are turning expert homesteader Marty Raney--along with his daughter Misty Raney, a farmer, and son Matt Raney, a hunter and fisherman--to teach them the necessary skills to survive the wilderness. The stakes are high, but the Raney family is determined to prepare these families for nature's worst and set them up for success. Each family faces the ultimate decision: will they tough out their first year or pack up and return to civilization?
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
