James Gregory is recovering from the injuries he received in the Target North episode. His girlfriend's father has retired from the intelligence department he worked for, but this doesn't stop him from enlisting the services of James - "Call it sun therapy. Part of your convalescence. I'm told the weather in northern Portugal is very pleasant at this time of year. It should only take a day or two to clear this thing up, reassure the lady, you know. You don't really have to get involved. If it looks that bad, just walk away, head down to the Algarve. Enjoy yourself." Just walk away - that was what he should have done, not get involved up to his neck. Another fast paced thriller for fans of James Gregory, with a very explosive ending . . .
