Anything for England

The War Room
Eddie Cass , small-time crook, throws this hatbox into the Thames. With the head still in it. Now everyone reckons he knows who did it. The CID, stinking of scent; the aristocracy warming his legs with their cigars; the girl in a mac and not much else. Trouble is, the only one who seems to know is Dana. His ex. But she's not saying.
The Patriot
Eddie Cass , small-time crook, throws this hatbox into the river. With the head still in it. Now they're all paying to find out who did it. But Eddie sees it isn't money makes the world go round.

Max Liebermann is a brilliant young English student of famed psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. When Max comes into contact with Oskar Rheinhardt, a Detective Inspector struggling with a strange case, he agrees to help him investigate a series of unusual and disturbing murders.

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.
