Chris:
"Spy agency Box 88 recruits Kite, a recent school leaver, to monitor a possible Iranian terrorist in France while on holiday with friends. Thirty years later, an Iranian intelligence agent captures Kite to establish what happened in France. Kite must use all his skills and experience to save himself and his family while Box 88 and MI5 try and find him. A gripping espionage thriller."
