    • Synopsis
    • Marcus is an ace hitman in the underworld. After fulfilling a recent contract, he meets up with three professional colleagues in a seedy hotel suite in Hong Kong.
      The first to arrive are Cordelia and Chase. The sexy Cordelia is Marcus’s ex- girlfriend and an equally deadly killer. Chase, a brutal British assassin, is looking to make inroads into the business.
      The last to arrive is Eli, an aging gentleman who has been in the trade longer than he cares to remember. Mentor to both Marcus and Cordelia, it’s been years since Eli last saw the two. The situation takes on the air of a family reunion. Friendships are renewed. Past exploits are remembered.
      Except for Chase, an outsider who becomes fed up with the nostalgia and demands to get to the heart of the matter.
      Tension mounts as Eli demands to know what went wrong with the kill. Marcus insists that it all went perfectly and that there’s nothing to worry about. Eli pressures him further; revealing that one of the two bodies is missing. Marcus remains adamant that he completed the job.
      But clearly, something is wrong.
      It becomes apparent that Cordelia has never forgiven Marcus for a dark deed in the past. Eli wants answers while Chase is driven to find the missing “body” and complete the hit. Tempers flare. Accusations fly. And cat-and-mouse game escalates.
      Each assassin harbours his own agenda and each is willing to sacrifice the others to fulfill it. Marcus’s life is in grave danger as the situation further deteriorates. And blood begins to flow.
      Various lies are peeled away. Marcus is indeed hiding something. But what? How does it relate to the missing body? And why?
      The noirish mystery unravels, leading to an explosive and deadly showdown where no one can be trusted.
