Fourth Angel, The

Putting work first, editor Jack Elgin (Jeremy Irons) reroutes his family’s vacation to cover a story in India. However, his selfish decision comes back to haunt him when terrorists hijack their flight. Though their demands are met, the terrorists fire on the passengers, killing Elgin’s wife and daughter. Elgin manages to survive and save his son, but after the attack he dedicates his life to justice and revenge. Meanwhile, an FBI agent (Forest Whitaker) also looks to bring down the terrorists.

The Economist reporter Jack Elgin, a workaholic, takes his family on a working trip to India, where he is to interview the PM. But their US airplane is hijacked in Limassol (Cyprus) by the unknown August 15 terrorist movement, which ends up in a bloodbath. Jack can save his pre-teen son Andrew, literally in his arms, but his wife and two daughters are among the slaughter victims. Western governments seem unwilling to go after the fiends, even hiding the identity of a high-profile victim. Although now a single father, Jack uses all his contacts and snooping skill to seek the truth himself. A London-based Serbian free newspaper editor sets him on the trail of four Balkanic killers, but is murdered. Jack decides to exact revenge himself, tipped-off by Sûreté-contact Duguay. Meanwhile US embassy official Davidson and FBI Special Agent Jules Bernard play a key part in the official, MI5-lead investigation, which ends up crossing Jack’s path.
