"Easily the best UK drama of the year." THE GUARDIAN

From the makers of Spooks and Life on Mars, this is an action-packed, high-octane 6 part series that asks whether operating outside the usual parameters of the law – under the pretext of protecting it – can ever be justified. John Mercer is an assassin for the state - beholden to his sinister master but not the boundaries of the law. Mercer’s role is that of hitman. On hand to help Mercer fulfil each hit are Calum, whose main interests are girls, drugs and music, and the sharp tongued but seductive Rose, an ex-copper forced out of the police by scandal Includes DVD Extra ”The Making of”. As seen on SBS TV.
