Cause for Alarm

Nicky Marlow needs a job. Heâ‚¬s engaged to be married and the employment market is pretty slim in Britain in 1937. So when his fiancÂ© points out the Spartacus Machine Tool notice, he jumps at the chance. After all, he speaks Italian and he figures heâ‚¬ll be able to endure Milan for a year, long enough to save some money. Soon after he arrives, however, he learns the sinister truth of his predecessorâ‚¬s death and finds himself courted by two agents with dangerously different agendas. In the process, Marlow realizes itâ‚¬s not so simple to just do the job heâ‚¬s paid to do in fascist Italy on the eve of a world war.
