The Director-General of the South African Secret Service (SASS), Lucas van Blerk, is called to London for a meeting with the SIS. The Head of SIS, "C" reveals his agents have found an abandoned nuclear weapons facility in South Africa. "C" and Lucas argue, but agree to investigate the situation more. But things goes awry when "C"'s secretary, Amy, leaks the minutes of the meeting. The mistake ends with the massacre of an entire village in South Africa, by a country who want to take over the nuclear weapons facility.
