31 NORTH 62 EAST
synopsis
Britain in 2009. The corrupt British Prime Minister John Hammond has secured an 80 billion arms deal with Afghanistan, a deal that will boost his image to the British public, ensuring his re-election. However when the Sheik of Afghanistan’s nephew is killed by a group of allegedly British soldiers, it becomes clear that fingers must be pointed. In order to hold the favour of the Sheik, and ensure that the arms deal remains safe, Hammond gives up the position of an SAS unit in Afghanistan despite the innocence of the unit, and reluctance of his PA, career driven Sarah Webber. All soldiers in the unit are assumed dead, until two months later, when a female Captain is discovered by Italian forces. The Captain is Jill Mandelson, who has survived the attack, instead being captured and tortured for information. On her rescue and release, she returns to the UK determined to investigate matters.
