A Modern Mata Hari

Season 1 - Episode 6: A Modern Mata Hari
Overview
The brains of a top CSIS agent are splattered all over the windshield of his car and speculation is running high on whether it was suicide or murder. Some say George Barkin was being forced into retirement so he committed suicide; others whisper that he was setting up ""business relationships"" in China; or that he was a double agent. But whatever the reason for his demise, there's bound to be a media frenzy around the incident - and The Eleventh Hour wants to be the first ones in. At the centre of all the controversy is a young woman named Lyn Sing, a Chinese citizen who's been working at the Embassy, and who is somehow linked with the now notorious CSIS officer. Maybe Sing's just a damsel in distress; maybe she was part of Barkin's espionage activities; or maybe even a suspect in his death. Megan wants an exclusive with this 'woman of the hour', but Donohue's instincts tell him that with all the news outlets clamoring for her, Sing will end up in the driver's seat, dictating her demand
