A counter-terrorism operation, codenamed 'Wildlife', is being mounted in the precious British colony of Gibraltar. Its objective: to capture and abduct an important jihadist arms dealer. Its authors: an ambitious Foreign Secretary and a private defense contractor who is also his close friend. The operation is so delicate that not even the minister's chief of staff, Toby Bell, has access to it. Suspecting a disastrous conspiracy, Toby tries to prevent it, but is quickly sent abroad. Three years later, called by Sir Christopher Probyn, a retired British diplomat, to his ruined Cornish estate, and closely followed by Probyn's daughter, Emily, Toby is forced to choose between his conscience and his duty to the service. But if the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, how can he remain silent?
