Description

In 2018, the UK faced a deadly nerve agent attack on former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia. Four months later, Dawn Sturgess tragically died after coming into contact with the same agent. Neil Basu and Tracy Daszkiewicz, key figures in the response, grapple with guilt and a sense of failure as the Russian suspects remain unpunished. The human cost of this state-sponsored assassination attempt is profoundly felt.
