A quick look at Almost Paradise's plot and cast
Almost Paradise focuses on the tumultuous life of a DEA Agent who's retired and moved to the Philippines. However, his seemingly peaceful life soon becomes dangerous as he gets sucked again into a world of crime and violence, pulling him back to work. Here's a short description of the crime series, as per Amazon Studios' press release:
"(Christian) Kane is Alex Walker, a former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent forced into early retirement. The combination of his partner’s betrayal and a life-threatening battle with hypertension has sent him as far from the madness as he can get—to a small tropical island in the Philippine archipelago."
The synopsis further states:
"He now runs the gift shop in the island’s luxury resort hotel, which attracts the rich, powerful, and sometimes criminal elite from around the world. Despite his best efforts to transition from Jason Bourne to Jimmy Buffett, Alex is pulled back into a world of dangerous people and deadly situations—either through his friends in the local police, Kai Mendoza and Ernesto Alamares, or encounters with people from his old life. And the problem is that he likes it.''
Christian Kane features in the lead role, along with Samantha Richelle, Nonie Buencamino, and many others playing key supporting characters.
