In the debut show, Russian agent “Wolfen” is killing off agents one by one and nearly bumps off our hero, Taylor. “Wolfen" is played by British bad boy Oliver Reed. ‘Operation: Masquerade’ is put into effect as common people get involved in a scam to discredit Wolfen in the eyes of his Russian superiors.
