While war rages across the Channel,
Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle continues to
investigate home-front crimes in Hastings?a formerly quiet coastal town
in southeastern England. Michael Kitchen (Reckless, Falling, Mrs. Dalloway,
Out of Africa) stars as the laconic investigator in four new feature-length
episodes of the award-winning PBS series. Assisted by his faithful driver
Samantha Stewart (Honeysuckle Weeks, Poirot) and police sergeant-turnedsoldier
Paul Milner (Anthony Howell, The Other Boleyn Girl, Wives and
Daughters), Foyle must unravel the clues linking recently arrived American
GIs and the murder of a local barmaid?a top-secret experiment and Sam?s
failing health?the death of a young munitions worker and the murder of
Milner?s wife?gambling and sabotage. The complete and long-awaited
fourth season. Extras include a ?making-of ? documentary, the historical
truth behind each episode, and more.
Includes the following episodes:
INVASION?As the first American GIs arrive to build an airbase near Hastings, the murder of a barmaid further strains already-tense relations between the locals and the Yanks.
BAD BLOOD?A top-secret experiment in biological warfare goes horribly wrong, complicating a murder investigation and threatening the life of Foyle?s faithful driver, Sam.
BLEAK MIDWINTER?The death of a young munitions worker and the murder of Paul Milner?s wife seem linked, and Foyle strives to clear his sergeant from suspicion.
CASUALTIES OF WAR?While investigating gambling and sabotage, Foyle takes in his troubled goddaughter and her severely traumatized son, who refuses to speak.
