The code is issued by the agency’s head, Sir Simon Scott. Actually, Reeve, who is Operative 66, has been framed and while he is being hunted by his colleagues, he uses his skill to uncover the reason why he’s given the Fox Red tag. He finds out that another operative, Craig Parker, had framed him to cover his own treachery.
Reeve had stopped Parker and killed him in the process. Unfortunately, his own death sentence has not been cancelled, so Reeve is on the run and hiding. His former mentor, Tony Maxwell gave him a way out to escape capture 18 months ago. And that was when he decided to leave London.
From then onwards, it’s an endless cat-and-mouse game all the way till the very end, with both Reeves’ and Connie’s lives always on the line of fire. They not only have to avoid the SC9 operatives but also the Russian agents who are after the phone that Reeves took from Parker. Apparently, Parker was planning to pass the phone with all the files on SC9’s agents and their dealings, to the Russians.
Meanwhile, Reeves’ father, who is in jail for killing his mother based on Reeves’ testimony, is being released by SC9 to bait Reeves out from his hiding. It works when Reeves, after reading the news, decides to return to London to seek him out.
Will he succeed in getting the SC9 and the Russian agents off his back and live to tell his side of the story?
