A former agent being tricked back into business to find out what is going on regarding an old friend and colleague of his blackmailing some unidentified person who has too much to hide. The mysteries are revealed only gradually, and you as an audience are as confused as Dennis Waterman as John Neal who suspects nothing but trusts no one and has reasons not to. His old friend and colleague Jim Caine (Sean McGinley) wants Dennis to cover him in his murky dealings which are too murky for his own or anyone's good. The film begins with a spectacular bank robbery which actually opens the drama, as one of the treasures found are Nazi mementos from the Second World War belonging to a family of very high status. We don't learn that until more than half way into the film, when innocent victims already have started piling up at the morgue. The less said about this M. P.'s progress and means the better, but no brutal murders can completely cover the truth. When Dennis finally takes his leave from his employers he hopes to never see them again. It's a fascinating thriller constantly developing and extremely skilfully written and done, and you just can't afford to miss any detail.
