After six years undercover in Damascus, agent Malotru returns home to Paris. As he begins to reconnect with real life - family, work & friends - Malotru struggles to forget his mistress Nadia, whom he fell in love with back in Syria.
With Cyclone still missing, the Bureau now has to handle the exfiltration of one of their assets in Algeria, Gherbi. Malotru rekindles his relationship with Nadia, but his guilt and resulting paranoia soon make him question her loyalty.
Malotru decides to test Gherbi’s loyalty by luring him into a trap. Nadia joins in on a mysterious meeting with other Syrians, but her regular “night-outs” soon arouse the suspicion of a Syrian agent, Nadim.
At a French-Algerian meeting, Malotru attempts to read the other Algerian officers to find out whether or not they are holding Cyclone in detention.
