Junior doctor Peter Lyle has been working at Manchester District General Hospital for just 7 months, quickly building a reputation for his thoroughness and ability as an anesthetist. When one of his patients goes into cardiac arrest and dies while Peter is on call, it sets in motion a chain of events which he could never have foreseen. Unable to rid his mind of the nagging doubts he had about the man's death, Peter decides to check the recent files for a similar death. While poring over them after a meal with friends, he discovers that both patients had worked at the airport. And when a third patient dies and is also connected to Manchester Airport, Peter is convinced that this is more than just a coincidence and begins to dig deeper. But what starts as a concern for the welfare of patients, unexpectedly uncovers a deadly plot to smuggle weapons grade nuclear material to the Middle East. And now Peter has offered himself as the next potential victim of a dangerous group, who are prepared to kill for what they want and die for their beliefs.
