An Englishman, Jonathan Pine (played by Tom Hiddleston), is working as the night manager of a Cairo hotel. He gets involved with a local woman who is the girlfriend of a local gangster. Through her relationship with the gangster she has acquired information linking illegal international arms sales with Richard Roper (Hugh Laurie), an English billionaire. She is soon found dead, murdered due to her having this information. Fearing for his own life, Pine flees, ending up working at a remote hotel in Switzerland. Four years pass, and then Roper visits the Swiss hotel. This rekindles Pines thirst for revenge, and he is enlisted by British Intelligence to spy on Roper. What follows is a very dangerous game of intrigue and deception. Written by grantss

amazing cast. great suspenseful storyline with amazing set locations. the brits do this kind of drama very well.
laurie is perfect as the villain and hiddlesworth is a worthy lead for the "james bond" super spy.
enough twists and turns through the series to keep you second guessing what's going to happen next, at least most of the time.
shame it wasn't longer, but think the 6 episodes was a good amount to stop too much filler being added but allowing the book to be fully delved into.
hopefully they can come up with a great second season.
