Retired police detective, Jack Wesley, is enjoying his solo canal boat journey across southern France. Late one night, a scantily clad woman swims onto his boat and asks to be hidden. Looking around, Jack sees three men methodically moving down the dock searching the neighboring boats. Doing the right thing, Jack suddenly finds himself in a plot to change the politics of Europe as he is immersed in drones, Australian spider poison, Cypriot terrorists and the Russian mob.
