Former Spymaster Sir Pilgrim Moore is establishing a feasibility study. He consults with the finest the British defence and intelligence communities have to offer. To fulfil his life's work. Once the linchpin between SIS and Number 10, Pilgrim now seems an insurgent against a stilted Whitehall-washed network of middle-management. A deep and covert technical plunge is required when devising his latest and final plan... to kill the President of the Russian Federation.

350 British civilians are dead and Russia is responsible. Number 10 hits back as a hapless Prime Minister plays his hand in the age of regime decapitation.
Bear Hunt is a technically rigorous action drama exploring the political manoeuvres, operational challenges and conflict expertise required to assassinate a head of state.

Billed as a British Bourne, this geopolitical thriller pulls listeners into the white-hot corridors of power in Westminster and Washington. To the battlefields where the nation’s best learnt their killing trade. And to the mission itself, deep behind enemy lines.

Goalhanger’s award-winning drama team worked with current and former military and defence professionals to shape the most accurate and daring mission conceivable: a forensic exploration of what it takes, in the modern age, to kill the President of the Russian Federation.
