Almost Paradise
On WGN America, Amazon Freevee
An action-adventure procedural about a retired operative drawn back into danger in an exotic setting, balancing the appeal of adrenaline against the promise of peace.
A former DEA agent forced into early retirement runs a gift shop in in the Philippines. Despite his best efforts to begin a tranquil new life, he’s pulled back into a world of dangerous people and deadly situations, either through his friends in the local police department or running into people from his old life. And the problem is: he likes it.
