Thieves of the Wood (2020)
S01E17 The Mysterious Stranger
Episode Overview
Lambert receives a personal ad in Mexico that claims, “if you want to find Professor Alwyn.” Alwyn, a fugitive from the future, vanished after being sentenced for creating lethal drugs. Upon arriving in Mexico, Lambert encounters someone he thinks is Alwyn, but it’s actually a future private investigator searching for him too. Reluctantly, Lambert allows the PI to join him. When they locate Alwyn's hideout, the lawyer there attempts to kill Lambert, leaving him with a serious head injury. The lawyer reveals he’s actually a doctor whose wife fell victim to Alwyn’s drugs. However, Lambert soon discovers that the doctor might not be who he claims to be—he could be a policeman or even an actor. Time is running out, and Lambert must find Alwyn before his new batch of drugs is produced and distributed.
