Additional InformationBritish secret agent Major John Tarrant (Michael Caine, GET CARTER) has his son kidnapped by ruthless gunrunners who demand a batch of uncut diamonds in exchange for his son's life. As Tarrant embarks on a chilling trail of revenge, he is forced to steal the diamonds and he finds himself having to not only contend with the criminals but his colleagues too. Action director Don Siegel (DIRTY HARRY) takes the unusual step of making a British spy thriller.
