Made in 1992 when the 'Costa Del Crime' was a big news issue in the Uk, frequently featuring in British tabloids, this centers on a big time criminal, who is supposed to be dead, spotted by a young cop on a familiy holiday in Spain. He is quickly repatriated to the UK where he offers to tell all, but only to the young policeman who found him.
David Morrissey is subsequently put in a secret underground location to eat, sleep and live with Timothy Dalton to extract all the info about the crimes, criminals and whereabouts of all the ill gotten gains.
Timothy Dalton plays the manipulative, charismatic and sometimes creepy Eddie Myers brilliantly and the young, naive Morrissey is slowly drawn into Eddie's world of wealth, high living and young girls.
Also a shout out to Timothy West who plays the old fashioned gruff Chief Inspector in charge of the case, the like of which would never survive in todays 'enlightened' met.
This is another fine offering from the pen of Lynda La Plante and highly recommended.
