The complete second seaason of the classic 1970s crime series. Bodie (Lewis Collins) and Doyle (Martin Shaw) are two elite officers in the secretive CI5 service, a unit staffed by expert policemen, soldiers and special forces to combat anarchy, terrorism and high-profile crime. In this series, Doyle is assigned to test a new laser-beam rifle, Bodie's girlfriend is critically injured in a terrorist bombing, and the team go up against a rogue agent. Episodes are: 'Hunter/Hunted', 'The Rack', 'First Night', 'Man Without a Past', 'In the Public Interest', 'Rogue', 'Not a Very Civil Civil Servant', 'A Stirring of Dust', 'Blind Run' and 'Fall Girl'.

John Goldsmith's wartime exploits are all the more remarkable considering that at first his services were consistently refused due to his being over 30. Not easily deterred he eventually became a tank driving instructor in the ranks. In 1942 accidental circumstances saw his recruitment into Buckmaster's F Section of the Special Operations Executive. His faultless French and upbringing in Paris were to prove invaluable. Commissioned overnight and after intensive training he was parachuted into France for the first of his three missions. His adventures included crossing the Pyrenees, sabotage, forming his own circuits, being captured by the Gestapo, a daring escape and black-marketeering. In 1944, now a Major, he was advisor to the Maquis in the Mont Ventoux area where they fought the Germans in pitched battles and won. Although this refreshingly modest account does not admit to it, Goldsmith's extraordinary war is best summed up by his DSO, MC, three Croix de Guerre and Legion d'honneur. Accidental Agent is as thrilling an account of war behind enemy lines as has ever been written.The author's descriptions of his experiences and the many colourful characters he came across are a joy to read.

Era, sin duda, la mayor acumulacion de oro en poder de un solo hombre: dos mil toneladas en lingotes, depositadas en una camara acorazada de Zurich. Casi el 2% de las reservas existentes en el mundo.

El griego propietario del oro habia decidido venderlo, pero la aparicion de semejante cantidad en el mercado libre provocaria un hundimiento de los precios y la consiguiente crisis financiera mundial.

Dos hombres, separadamente, reciben un encargo casi irrealizable: vender el oro a inversores privados en el mas absoluto secreto. Se trata de Eddy Polonski, un metalurgico genial acosado por el omnipresente cartel sudafricano del oro, que necesita su asesoramiento, y de dan Daniels, abogado internacional, brillante pero en la ruina. Ambos comprendian que el oro del griego era su oportunidad para ganar millones. La logica de las circunstancia hace que pronto se encuentren y decidan colaborar. Pero no sospechaban que habia alguien mas involucrado en el negocio, y que deberian enfrentarse a una fuerza ponderosa e implacable: un gran banco de la City londinense, controlado por hombres que se
