As crime ravages Britain with daily news of shootings, gangs out of control and rumours of corruption within the establishment and the police seemingly losing the battle, who can bring order? / John Mercer is a former member of the Special Forces serving a double life sentence. He is released from prison unexpectedly early and introduced to the shadowy Lenny Douglas, a police officer retired on grounds of ill health. / Mercer realises his newfound freedom comes at a price. Douglas pulls together an unofficial operation with a single brief -- to remove untouchable criminals from society. / Mercer must use the skills he learned in the Special Forces to execute a series of discreet hits. / To help him complete each mission, Mercer is introduced to his new colleagues who include Calum McKenzie, a petty thief whose main interests are girls, drugs and music. / Things are complicated by the final member of Douglas's group -- the sharp tongued but seductive Rose, an ex-copper forced out of the police by scandal, she has always used her sexuality as her primary weapon and is more than a match for Mercer. / The gang operates outside the parameters of the law and is at odds with the world but when it comes to fulfilling its mission it is lethally effective.
