To Catch a Criminal
The Sweeney Flying Squad is London's elite crime-fighting branch of the Metropolitan Police specializing in tackling armed robbery and violent crime. Led by legendary Detective Jack Regan and his loyal partner, the group is not afraid to use old school, bare-knuckle tactics to bring down the modern underworld. Now, with a master criminal on the loose and a major bank heist in progress, Regan will do whatever it takes to get the job done, even if that means defying the orders of his boss and taking the law into his own hands.

But when it is discovered that some who take the drug do not come back from their trips as human and that a silent otherworldly invasion has begun to overtake Earth, the situation needs a hero.
