an intrepid investigative journalist (tennant) hears rumblings about a vast conspiracy to undermine the current prime minister, the most progressive britain has ever known. this pm could bring about a golden age in politics — but someone is determined to smear his good intentions. following the evidence leads the reporter to a modern day mata hari (piper) being paid and coerced by shadowy figures. when he realizes that she’s also a victim with a tragic past, the reporter becomes determined to unmask the conspirators, bring everything into the light, and rescue her at the same time. what follows is a daring string of break-ins, blackmails, and confessions beneath the bedsheets. who can be trusted, when the nation’s future is on the line?
