So you think you know what's going to happen…?
A Russian arms dealer is on the run. He has money, he has secrets, and powerful enemies who want him dead.
Three hired guns are sent to track him down and kill him. They find him in Marseilles where Chief Inspector Daniel Jacquot is investigating a series of deadly knife attacks.
As Christmas approaches and Jacquot closes on the killer, his pregnant lover, Claudine, is rushed to hospital. Jacquot hurries to her bedside, but he soon discovers that a hospital is not the safest place to be.
Jacquot may be off duty, and about to become a father, but for a cop in Marseilles Christmas is just another day…
