Red Alert

Two Russian agents arrive at Faslane, Scotland the home of the UK nuclear submarine squadron. With them is an Algerian woman and her young son whom the Russians took hostage from the refugee camp in Calais, known as 'the jungle'. They offer the woman free passage to the UK provided that when they arrive in Scotland she will complete a number of small tasks for them. She agrees. In London a third Russian agent masquerading a bicycle courier is ordered to deliver a parcel containing a poisonous substance to the office of MI3, an obscure Ministry of Defence department with the cover name of Domesticus Cleaning Services, otherwise known as DCS. The office manager refuses to accept a parcel she has not ordered. The courier leaves the parcel in a corridor where it is discovered and the bomb disposal squad called. Angered by the failure of the courier to deliver the parcel, his boss in the Kremlin orders him to join his colleagues at Faslane. The parcel is sent to Porton Down, where the scientists discover it contains Ricin. In Faslane the Algerian woman is ordered to discreetly spread Ricin powder around a pub popular with Royal Navy personnel, many of whom are immediately poisoned. Having successfully completed her task she and her son are released. Major Challenor, the officer in charge of DCS is informed of the attack at Faslane. He deploys three of his agents, Mike Harding,a former British Special Forces soldier, Annalisa Botelli a linquist from Met Police Speical Branch now transferred to MI13 and the Jamaican Dave Stephenson slso a senior officer from Met Police Special Branch also transferred to MI13, to Scotland. Their task is to find the persons behind the Ricin attacks and remove them with extreme prejudice.
