"While the World's at War, One Man Fights His Own Battle on the Home Front."

While WWII rages across the Channel, police detective Christopher Foyle (Michael Kitchen) reluctantly remains on duty in his quiet English coastal town. The battle comes to Foyle in its own way as he probes war-related cases of murder, espionage, and treason. Mystery blends with history, moral complexity, and period atmosphere in this splendid British series.

Also starring Anthony Howell and Honeysuckle Weeks, Foyle's War: Set 5 includes the mysteries Plan of Attack, Broken Souls, and All Clear.

• "It's to the credit of the series, and its creator, Anthony Horowitz, that no easy answers are provided. And that's a big part of what makes the series so good."  David Wiegand, San Francisco Chronicle
• "...will satisfy any WWII enthusiast or fan of British mysteries."  NeedCoffee.com
• "...excels at bringing up issues related to WWII...Kitchen's subtle, imperturbable, self-possessed performance perfectly matches the tone..."  Paul Mavis, DVD Talk

Editor's Note: In the fifth set of this engrossing British mystery series, cop detective Christopher Foyle (played by Michael Kitchen) continues his stint of investigating death and spy-related cases during World War II. While Foyle's English seaside village remains sleepy even during wartime, the mysteries he sets out to solve are anything but.
