The Story
Freedom is Elusive. The Quest is Perilous.
Three high-profile murders in one day should have ended 28 years of oppression for atypical silent assassins Chris Davis and Michelle Barton. Wrong. Dead wrong! Their plight worsens.
The underdog siblings are hounded by a ruthless FBI agent, coerced into black ops missions by a manipulative operative, and hunted by the vindictive successor of an assassin network. They also struggle to unravel a global conspiracy. Each explosive ordeal threatens their emotional bond, moral compass and lives.
Relentless danger happens at a Russian superyacht in Montenegro, a drug-infested street in Philadelphia, a famous casino in Monte Carlo, a battle in Afghanistan, a presidential palace in Ecuador and in the squalor of Havana, Cuba.
The cinematic, propulsive and character-driven thriller includes deceit, romance, compassion, whiplashing twists and a soul-crushing quest for freedom ... or die trying.
