A thrilling spy story set in Poland, Paris, London & Berlin in the years leading up to
the Second World War. French and German intelligence operatives are locked in a life-and-death struggle on the espionage battlefield.
At the French embassy, the new military attaché, Colonel Jean-Francois Mercier (Tennant), a decorated war hero of the
1914 war, is drawn into a world of abduction, betrayal and intrigue in the diplomatic salons and back alleys of Warsaw.
At
the same time, the handsome aristocrat finds himself in a passionate love affair with Anna (Montgomery), a Parisian lawyer
for the League of Nations. Their complicated love affair intensifies as German tanks drive through the Black Forest.
Two
90-minute film adaptations of one of Furst’s most acclaimed novels will bring to BBC Four a combination of historically
located, intelligent narratives, interlaced with flawed, romantic and utterly compelling characters.
Coming Wednesday, April 3 and Wednesday, April 10 at 9/8c on BBC America’s
