Following the true 1992 London police investigation into a young mother’s murder, the film tracks the controversial honey‑trap operation targeting a suspect. It delves into the toxic sexual politics of the early ’90s and a police fixation on the wrong man, as undercover officer ‘Lizzie James’ is pressed to act as sexual bait for an alleged killer.
