Set in London, this three-part British miniseries was adapted by Gerald Seymour from his own novel. A visiting Israeli scientist was targeted for assassination by two different terrorist organizations: one Irish, one Arab. After working at cross-purposes for an extended length of time, the hired killers from both factions decided to join forces to carry out their murderous assignment.
Episode 1
Famy and McCoy are hired to assassinate a world famous scientist. They are sought by British security on the streets of London.
Episode 2
Sokarev reluctantly proceeds to his London engagement under the protection of veteran security agent Jimmy, an alcoholic with a maverick streak. The terrorists botch their hit and split up.
Episode 3
Wounded McCoy stays at the suburban home of Norah, a local girl who inexplicably loves the brutal killer. Police catch McCoy, and Jimmy pries out of him Famy's next plan: to kill Sokarev at Heathrow Airport. Jimmy leads his men in a race against time and manage to collar the Arab.
