Close to the Enemy

At the end of WWII, British intelligence officer Callum Ferguson is assigned to persuade captured German scientist Dieter Koehler to work with the RAF to develop an urgently needed jet engine.

Callum uses unorthodox methods in an attempt to convince Dieter to work with the British, while also juggling the demands of War Crimes officer Kathy — who believes the British government is harboring war criminals — and his troubled younger brother, Victor.

Everyone puts aside their differences in the search for Lotte and Callum is forced to take a choice between his brother and orders from his superiors. Callum's best friend, Alex, encourages his American wife, Rachel, to seek Callum's help in becoming a patron of the arts.
