Unlikely Alliance

Karl Ritter has his pilot's licence suspended because he has put off taking government required medical tests. Reluctantly he hires 28 year-old Kate Ashcroft as a temporary pilot. When she proves her skill by avoiding a midair accident, what looks like a fiery relationship becomes a long-standing one. Karl Ritter is the proprietor of a small air transport service in British Columbia. He is grounded when he fails a fitness test and is urged to take on Kate Ashcroft as substitute pilot. Karl has his misgivings about a woman as pilot but he has little choice if his business is to continue. So he agrees to undertake an Unlikely Alliance. Knowing that Karl Ritter has had his licence removed Sandby makes a move to take over Karl's company. Sandby pretends to help but is really protecting himself from another rival taking over. Doctor Crawford suspends Karl Ritter's flying licence for health reasons. Ritter runs a domestic airline service in a small district. When Kate is appointed to be Ritter's pilot, he is reluctant although she proves to be competent in her job.

Beyond the Gates

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
