Synopsis
Pictures
The son of British agent John Tarrant is kidnapped. When the kidnappers demand that he pay a ransom of £500,000 in uncut diamonds (recently acquired to fund another operation) it?s clear that they?re acting on information filtered by a member of British intelligence. Cedric Harper, Tarrant?s direct superior, tells him that he can?t allow the ransom to be paid as the British government doesn?t negotiate with terrorists.
