In a remote area of Northern Kenya,
the region's most dedicated activist, the brilliant
and passionate Tessa Quayle (Rachel
Weisz), has been found brutally murdered.
Tessa's traveling companion, a local doctor, appears
to have fled the scene, and the evidence points
to a crime of passion. Sandy Woodrow, Sir Bernard
Pellegrin, and the other members of the British
High Commission assume that Tessa's widower, their
mild mannered and unambitious colleague Justin Quayle
(Ralph
Fiennes), will leave the matter to their
discretion. They could not be more wrong. This career
diplomat's equilibrium has been exploded by the
loss of the woman he was deeply devoted to. They
were opposites whose attraction sustained a marriage,
the memories of which now spur Justin to take decisive
action for the first time in his life and diplomatic
career.
Haunted by remorse and jarred by rumors of his wife's
infidelities, Justin surprises himself by plunging
headlong into a dangerous odyssey. Determined to
clear his wife's name and "finish
what she started," Justin embarks on
a crash course to learn about the pharmaceutical
industry, whose crimes Tessa was on the verge of
uncovering, and journeys across two continents in
search of the truth. His eyes are soon opened to
a vast conspiracy at once deadly and commonplace,
one that has claimed innocent lives and is about
to put his own at risk. |
