Starring:
Once every thousand years, the Zoroastrian demon Ahriman returns to wreak havoc on the earth. He has already brought destruction to Duncan MacLeod's world, having caused Richie's death at Duncan's hand. But now MacLeod returns to Paris to take up his mantle as Champion and vows to destroy Ahriman. Sophie Baines knows how to defeat the demon, but is she MacLeod's ally or another pawn in Ahriman's game?
With the help of Father Beaufort and Joe Dawson, MacLeod finally begins to find a crack in Ahriman's armor. But he soon learns, along with Dawson, that anyone who helps the Champion becomes fair game for the demon. Joe is torn by guilt as Watchers—friends—are murdered by Ahriman, while Father Beaufort has his own inner demons to contend with. Not even Holy Ground is sanctuary, as MacLeod wrestles with Ahriman in the final battle—Armageddon.
When Duncan's friend is killed in a car explosion, the Highlander tries to track down the killer and runs into Alex Raven, a beautiful Immortal set upon fulfilling a vow dating back to World War II (flashback: Warsaw, 1942; England, ?) —no matter who gets in her way.
Embezzler, charmer, and con man extraordinaire, Willie Kingsley has a knack for turning up dead—and profiting from it handsomely (flashback: London, 1836; London, 1969). But when one last con goes horribly wrong, resulting in the death of his mortal wife, Willie turns to Duncan MacLeod to help him track down her killer. MacLeod wants justice; Willie wants revenge.
Police at her heels, killers on her trail, Kyra is on the run, with no memory of who—or what—she is. In the streets of Paris, she runs into Duncan MacLeod, who spins a wild story: That he and Kyra were lovers once, some three hundred years ago (flashback: France, 1640). That she is a soldier, a warrior. That she is Immortal. Kyra doesn't believe a word of it ... but if it isn't true, then why is someone after her head?
Four hundred years ago (flashback: Scotland, 1634), Devon Marek was a spoiled aristocrat with a passion for the hunt. His first teacher, Duncan MacLeod, forced him to give up his lands and title when he became Immortal, and Marek's never forgiven him for it. Now Marek has built a new empire, and he's ready to hunt his most dangerous prey yet: MacLeod. Obsessed with revenge, Marek imprisons the Highlander in a deserted highrise office building ... with a gang of deadly mercenaries on his tail.
It's 1929, and Hugh Fitzcairn is enjoying the life of an English lord. He has good friends, a beautiful wife, trusted servants ... until one of his nearest and dearest "murders" him, that is. Now, with the help of his old friend Duncan MacLeod, Fitz is determined to uncover the identity of his own murderer—before more bodies start piling up.
When Immortal Katya's adopted daughter is murdered, the courts let the killer—her husband—walk free. Now Katya's an avenging angel, determined to see justice done at any cost ... but can MacLeod convince her that justice and revenge aren't the same thing? Flashback: Buenos Aires, 1958, 1996; England 1362.
All bounty hunter Reagan Cole wanted was a holiday in Paris with Duncan MacLeod; what she gets is international intrigue, a hunky underwear model, and a terrorist with a million-dollar price on his head. Flashback: London, 1833.
with a female immortal as the lead.
Centuries ago (flashback: Northern England, 1270), Bartholomew sent thousands to their deaths during the Crusades, amassing a fortune in God's name. Now Katherine is determined to take his head - if only she can keep her mortal husband, Nick, from interfering with the Game.
Methos and Joe Dawson join forces when past indiscretions threaten their lives—and loved ones—in the present. Morgan Walker has been nursing a grudge against Methos for two hundred years, and now he may finally get the chance to take his revenge ... by kidnapping Joe's daughter.
The popular series lays down its sword after six seasons in this stirring finale, in which MacLeod makes the ultimate sacrifice to save the lives of Amanda and Joe Dawson... then reunites with old friend Hugh Fitzcairn, and gets a look at what the world - and his friends' lives - would be like without him.
Fitz died three hundred years ago... Horton has taken over the Watchers... Joe Dawson has been reduced to a bitter, penniless vagrant... Amanda is a black widow... and Methos has rejoined the Horsemen to avenge his fiance's death. If you think that's bad, just wait till you find out what's happened to Richie and Tessa. Richie joins the Horsemen, but Methos kills him after he refuses to kill Dawson, who convinces Richie that this is not the life he wanted. Tessa is alive, but married to another man. Macleod tries to find love in Tessa, but realizes that what he's doing is wrong. He confronts Methos and kills him. Fitz arrives to tell him that this is a world of what will be if Macleod hadn't been born. Dawson, Amanda, and Methos wouldn't know how they would feel if Macleod hadn't been there for them.
