""Immortal thief seeks diamonds, but his greatest challenge is his own immortality.""
In Highlander on the Hudson, Connor MacLeod, an immortal Scottish warrior, finds himself in the unlikeliest of places - a high-stakes diamond heist in 1980s New York City. When a cunning diamond advocate, George W. Kilgour, attempts to steal a valuable collection, he's not the only one after the gems. A group of ruthless mercenaries, led by the cunning and beautiful Wanda Gershwitz, are hot on his heels. As Connor navigates the concrete jungle, he must use his immortal skills to take down the mercenaries and protect the diamonds, all while trying to stay one step ahead of Wanda, who's not just after the loot, but also after Connor himself. With his immortal strength and Wanda's cunning, the battle for the diamonds becomes a clash of titans, set against the backdrop of the Hudson River, where the past and present collide in a thrilling adventure of love, loyalty, and immortality.
