They spend a night together, but no more. She cannot allow herself the luxury of a relationship.Her next “mark” turns out to be a professional killer who wants to retire.

Gradually though, as she recovers, she opens up to him. Lewin tracks Anna down and insists she attend to her unfinished business. She has no choice. Anna and Lino quarrel when she tells him she is leaving him again. After carrying out the hit, Anna goes to Lewin and says she wants to retire. Lewin agrees – on one condition. She must take out Lino…
