Synopsis

Clotilde Chambord, a young journalist working for a weekly newspaper, has been investigating for several months on the activity of a business man, as mysterious as he is powerful. Jean-Pierre Gallois is a middleman in the financial package of sensitive operations abroad. Thanks to a network of secret companies off-shore, he never shows up in the transactions but earns massive profits through commissions. He’s very elusive, lives in the shadow of the political authority, hides from the press.
Nobody even has a photo of him.

The indiscretion of a special branch officer, friend of Clotilde’s newspaper’s editor-in-chief will force the lion out of his den. Gallois wants to meet this combative and uncompromising journalist looking to take him down. He’ll use corruption, deception and seduction to convert her, but he’ll fall prey to his own trap, as love and passion takes over his private interests…
