When Chris Jones' client shakes hands on a deal to sell his Dubai business, the lawyer is confronted with a rather inconvenient conflict of interest: Chris has every reason to wish for Mark's deal to fail.
Why? Chris is a bigamist with a family in London and another in Dubai. Now with the Dubai job at risk, there's a fast-approaching deadline to fix the mess caused by this flawed existence.
The crazy to-ing and fro-ing is being brought to an enforced stop, and it's time to confront some ugly truths. Alex, Chris' spouse in London, can't get past the disappointment of a failed acting career to see there's a nine-year-old in the house. The police have already been involved, and son, Josh, is at imminent risk. Chris' other spouse, Amal, is facing prosecution in Dubai for crimes that carry a lengthy prison sentence. If convicted, who's going to look after their young daughter?
Time and options are running out when Chris is offered a lifeline. The businessman buying Mark's company has found out about Chris' secret double life and has responded with a proposal: it's blackmail, it's criminal... it's appealing.
Chris needs to make some tough decisions - fast.
