John Rain

Táto séria sleduje osudy ostrieľaného, no morálne rozpolteného nájomného vraha, ktorý sa pohybuje na tenkom ľade medzi svojou nebezpečnou profesiou a túžbou po vykúpení. Každý prípad ho vťahuje hlbšie do sveta intríg, zrady a násilia, kde sú hranice medzi dobrom a zlom neustále stierané. Odhaľuje zložitosť ľudskej psychiky a cenu, ktorú človek platí za svoje činy, to všetko zasadené do exotických medzinárodných lokalít.
