In a cabin deep in the mountains of the South of France, the Killer has set up a new base of operations. From this remote hideout, he accepts each new mission with a calculated precision, never straying from the assignment and always returning to this safe haven in the immediate aftermath.
This practiced routine is suddenly disrupted though when he discovers that he has some… unexpected neighbors. This unanticipated development seems to have the potential to finally alter the way the Killer sees the world. But for a man in his line of work, change isn’t just dangerous, it could be deadly.
