Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
A few years before he was to gain a name as the French secret agent "Tiger" in spy spoofs by Claude Chabrol, Roger Hanin appeared as Jean, a serious secret agent who is teamed with Vigo (Claude Brasseur) in a case involving a stolen Russian code. One of the attachés in the Russian embassy has come under suspicion because he lost some important papers, and then he has some mysterious dealings with a saleswoman and is apparently kidnapped. The two agents have their work cut out for them as they try to decipher what is really going on -- and who has the papers, as well as the code.
