Two CIA agents Jim Brady and Ann Turner escape from a military
complex in the Middle East after trying to steal a canister of
biological material. A high-speed boat chase follows until
eventually they outrun their pursuers and set off overland to find
the aircraft they flew in on. After arriving back at their
operations base they find the canister they stole contained
nothing. The batch they were after had been moved hours before they
got there. The scene switches to London where an unknown terrorist
cell attempts to plant a device in the London underground. This
failed after the person planting it electrocutes himself on the
live rail. The device is quickly found and brought to the surface
for testing, where they discover it contains anthrax. MI5 and the
antiterrorist branch of Scotland Yard are unable to identify the
body at first. But with the help of the CIA they eventually
discover who he is, and link him to a suspect they've been
watching. The suspect, who assembled the device, is instructed to
meet the third member of the cell to explain why the plot failed.
After the meeting he is caught heading back to London by MI5, and
following interrogation agrees to become a double agent. After what
happened in London. The British Prime Minister and the American
President meet in Washington, and agree to a joint operation to
hunt down the terrorists. The CIA pick up a coded message from a
phone intercept, which suggests the group who attempted to release
anthrax in London are going to try again in Washington. Realising
this the British and American secret services set out on a joint
mission to kill or capture the group.
