Determined to find the person who gunned down his friend, a CIA agent, on a street in Greece, FBI agent Bill Erlich discovers clues that lead him to a run-down English manor and the fugitive son of a World War II hero.

          Just prior to the invasion of Kuwait, Bill Erlich, a young FBI operative, is hard on the heels of a terrorist. As he blunders in to the lines by which the Iraqi puppet-masters control their undercover agents in England, Bill realises he has gone beyond the point of recall. He is engaged in Condition Black – lethal assault in progress.
