Boyd is determined to learn the truth and calls in a favour from a friend at the CIA.

Ted Allbeury's spy thriller serial adapted from his 1983 best-seller.

Starring David Banks and Barry Foster.

When President Kennedy said in his inauguration speech that America would 'pay any price' to preserve freedom, he could not have realised that the price would include his own life.

Neither could he have imagined that defending freedom would lead to the ruthless sacrifice of the minds of innocent people.

This is the story of part of the price that was paid.

It may seem incredible, but it is based on fact.
