Abdul Kharami is a suspected terrorist who is under constant surveillance but manages to evade his watchers just as MI-5 receives reliable information that he may be ready to stage an attack. Kharami specializes US targets and given the Americans set them up with the Tehran explosion, Ros for one thinks they should just ignore him. Harry Pearce thinks otherwise and brings his American counterpart, Bob Hogan, up to date. He also authorizes the launch of Operation Zebra, MI-5's plan to infiltrate the CIA. When Kharami's plan is traced to the Iranian Special Consul, Adam...
