The official synopsis reads:
In the winding hills of Lisboa, where colourful facades conceal dark secrets, Alex Lapierre leads a peaceful existence, far removed from his tumultuous past as a professional hitman. However, the past never stays buried for long.
Matt Daniels, a former accomplice of Lapierre, resurfaces, shattering the tranquillity of his retirement. Daniels' haunted gaze speaks volumes, but it's the words he utters that send chills down Lapierre's spine: "Lewis has been kidnapped by a criminal organization." Lewis, their long-time friend, is now trapped in an endless nightmare.
Making the situation even more nightmarish is the fact that the head of this criminal organization is none other than Blake Dumont, Lewis' archenemy, presumed dead since an explosion many years ago. His reappearance hints at a far more sinister and calculated plot than anything Lapierre could have imagined.
