Deep State

Overview

The first season centered on Max Easton, an ex-MI6 spy whose past
comes back to haunt him when he’s summoned away from his new life in the
Pyrenees by George White, head of covert MI6/CIA team called
The Section. White convinces Max to return to the field to avenge the
death of his estranged son Harry. But the stakes are soon raised when
Max finds himself at the heart of a covert intelligence war, immersed in
a widespread conspiracy to profit from the spread of chaos in the Middle
East.

The second season delves deeper into the murky world of
the deep state. Having failed in the Middle East, those powers now are
turning their attention to Sub-Saharan Africa and the scramble to
plunder its natural resources. This is the first dirty war over clean
energy.
