Ex-con Gary 'Gal' Dove (Ray Winstone) has served his time behind bars and has blissfully retired to a Spanish villa paradise with a wife he adores. The idyll is shattered by the arrival of his nemesis, the psychopath Don Logan (Ben Kingsley), intent on persuading Gal to return to London for one last big job. Desperate not to sacrifice his enchanted existence, Dove is drawn into a shocking and explosive battle of wills with Logan, a battle that redefines his notions of love, honour, and commitment.
