An 18-part serialisation of John Masters' chronicles of the Savage family, spanning the years 1825-1946 and set against the backdrop of British rule in India. Based on the hugely popular novels of John Masters, this landmark BBC Radio adaptation charts the history of the British in India through the perspective of one family over several generations. Ranging over more than 120 years, these thrilling tales of love, murder and espionage take us from the expansion of the East India Company to the last days of the Raj and the approach of Independence.

John Masters was a soldier before he became a best-selling novelist. He went to Sandhurst in 1933 at the age of 18 and was commissioned into the Fourth Gurkha Rifles in time to take part in some of the last campaigns on the turbulent North-West Frontier of India. John Masters joined a Gurhka regiment on receiving his commission, and his depiction of garrison life and campaigning on the North-West Frontier has never been surpassed. Bugles and a Tiger is a matchless evocation of the British Army in India on the eve of the Second World War.

This is the second part of John Masters' autobiography: how he fought with his Gurkha regiment during World War II until his promotion to command one of the Chindit columns behind enemy lines in Burma. Written by a best-selling novelist at the height of his powers, it is an exceptionally moving story that culminates in him having to personally shoot a number of wounded British soldiers who cannot be evacuated before their position is overrun by the Japanese. 

Efter nogle tumultariske år i 1600-tallets England øjner den unge Jason Savage en chance for at starte forfra. Da han må flygte fra en uretfærdig dom for krybskytteri og det uheldige udfald af en ridderdatters opmærksomhed, går han ombord på en skib mod Indien. Jasons nye liv viser sig dog slet ikke så enkelt, som han havde håbet. Politisk ustabilitet i kolonistaten, en romance med en lokal pige lovet væk til en indisk gud og den uønskede kærlighed fra en halvt blind pige gør hans liv kompliceret og farligt.

Med mottoet "koste hvad det vil" er Peter Savage fast besluttet på, at intet må komme i vejen for hans fremgang i verden. Hans voldelige og egoistiske natur danner grundlag for alt, hvad han gør, både i sit liv som soldat i det britisk koloniserede Indien og i hans ambition om at blive verdens bedste bjergbestiger. Afgørende for hans sejre er de mennesker omkring ham som han koldblodigt manipulerer - fra sine to loyale venner til de kvinder han følelsesmæssigt udnytter.

Blue Line Rogue is the gripping true story of John Masters, a decorated U. S. Army Veteran and certified peace officer, who discovered corruption inside his own agency and paid the ultimate professional price for speaking out.

When elite operative William Mercer takes on a high-stakes contract for Sentinel Strategic Solutions (SSS), he expects another covert mission—one buried in classified files and stitched together with deception. But what he uncovers is something far beyond corporate espionage and political power plays. A renegade scientist vanishes, a shadow organization moves in, and whispers of an unknown force manipulating global events begin to surface. When technology is the ultimate currency.

What if love was the only thing that could save the world? In a time when artificial intelligence is learning faster than humanity can understand it, two souls—Tim and Cindy—are called beyond the veil of ordinary life. What begins as a classified assignment inside a covert agency known as VINE becomes something far more extraordinary: a revelation about ancient resets, spiritual inheritance, and the true cost of forgetting who we are. As global systems prepare to unleash AI into every corner of daily life, the couple uncovers a dangerous truth—machines can learn logic, but not conscience.

In The Silent Agreement, the shocking truth is revealed: an ancient extraterrestrial race forged a secret deal with early human elites—in exchange for allowing civilization to thrive, Earth would supply one thing in return: gold.

In a world where the line between truth and deception is razor-thin, a dedicated team of investigators discovers a trail of buried secrets that could change everything. Gary, a seasoned investigator, leads a talented team at VINE headquarters, where they uncover leads that point to a decades-old disinformation project tied to UFOs, government cover-ups, and hidden technologies.
