Mark Strong plays a former British spy who is forced out of retirement

Mark Strong plays a former British spy who is forced out of retirement.

Family man and British expat Max (played by star of big and small screen Mark Strong) is living a tranquil life in France.

Little does he know that his past as a ruthless MI6 operative is about to catch up with him, as sinister events force him back to London.

There he receives a briefing for one final job, which leaves him with no choice but to put his life and his marriage to Anna (Lyne Renée) on the line.

As he flies to Beirut, you get the sense that nothing will ever be the same again...

A gripping, tense eight-part conspiracy thriller that leaves you wanting more – though you might have to watch the more brutal scenes from behind a cushion!
