There wasn’t an album they wouldn’t buy, or a drug they wouldn’t try. Then it spiralled out of control. They were left with nothing. Nothing but the eternal quest of all men – the search for love. Opening in the late 1980s as rave culture is born and moving into the 1990s, ‘Men In Love’ reunites the Trainspotting crew for a riotous new journey. Renton, Spud, Sick Boy and Begbie leave heroin behind and seek joy, and the hope of redemption, on the dance floor. Each wants to feel alive in the closing years of Thatcher’s Britain, and they fill their days with sex and romance and trying to get ahead. Taking in Edinburgh, London, Amsterdam and Paris, the group charges towards an unexpected event – Sick Boy’s wedding day. But is falling in love the answer, or just another doomed quest?

In a busy maternity ward, first-time father Dan meets Jada, a dad welcoming his sixth child into the world. Dan & Jada come from very different places: both called Glasgow. Dan is a successful TV writer with a townhouse in the West End & a shiny Tesla ready to drive his wife & baby home. Jada is a hustling, small-time criminal who is already planning how to separate Dan from some of the luxuries Jada has never been able to enjoy in his tiny flat in a council block. Both men find that the birth of their sons has fired their ambitions. Dan plans to walk away from his saccharine TV success & finally knuckle down to writing that novel he always felt he had in him. While, for Jada, it’s the opportunity for one last get-rich-quick scheme – ripping off a local airport. When a tragedy occurs, their worlds are brought closer than either could ever have imagined – close enough that it could mean destruction for both of them.

Detective Caius Beauchamp is dispatched to a double murder in a South London townhouse. It looks like a simple botched burglary, until Caius gets a tip-off about the well-heeled family’s nefarious past. Which is worse: the body on the floor or the skeletons in the closet? Caius’ own family circumstances have changed recently: some complicated inheritance tetris means he is now in line to inherit a country estate. He’s still getting used to his new life in the upper echelons of society. And when he realises that he recognises the victims from a recent luxury train ride, it all starts feeling a little too close for comfort.
