The French Intelligence Service wants to work in partnership with MI5 to catch an arms expert whom they suspect of trying to sell Eurofighter technology to the highest bidder. The British government, however, wants MI5 to acquire it for themselves. An operation of European unity turns into one of lies and mistrust. This raises the question of how they access the technology - it seems a 14-year-old thief is their only option.
