Synopsis

Missing: one junior diplomat and forty-three of the British Embassy s most confidential files. The timing is alarmingly significant. With neo-Nazi riots and radical student demonstrations, the threat to Germany s security is all too apparent. Britain s own Alan Turner is sent in, with instructions to tread carefully at all costs. But will he find the missing man and the files before the political situation erupts?

Kenneth Haigh stars as Alan Turner with Bernard Hepton as Rawley Bradfield in a fast-paced, explosive dramatization of John le Carre s acclaimed spy story, dramatized by Rene Basilico."
