Plot:
Brutal former Belarusian dictator Vladislav Dukhovich is on trial at the World Court in The Hague for crimes against humanity, with the investigation against him led by Interpol. From behind bars, Dukhovich has been able to pull strings to neutralize any witness and/or evidence against him, he certain to get off with the exception of only one possible witness against him left who could cause him some problems. That person is incarcerated hitman Darius Kincaid, who agrees to testify only in return for an issue concerning his also incarcerated wife Sonia Kincaid, a perpetually and inherently angry woman. Interpol agent Amelia Roussel is the head of the security detail for the transport of Kincaid from London, where he is in prison, to The Hague. Roussel's convoy is ambushed shortly after leaving the prison by Dukhovich's team, with only Roussel and Kincaid able to escape together. Knowing that there is a mole in Interpol who was able to tip off Dukhovich as to the details of the transport, Roussel, with Kincaid, goes rogue in trusting no one inside. The unknown mole is her direct superior Jean Foucher, who she would have trusted with her life otherwise. The person she turns to instead is her ex-boyfriend Michael Bryant, a bodyguard who was once, as he likes to put it, triple-A rated in the profession, that is until he lost a client, a known arms dealer, that was at the time still under his guard. He blamed and still blames Roussel for the incident in it being the one and only time he divulged the name of a criminal client to anyone, he certain that she used that information against him and said client, despite her denials. What convinces Bryant to help her, beyond being secretly still in love with her, is success leading to the reinstatement of his triple-A rating. He may change his mind when he learns his "client" is Kincaid, with who he has had run-ins "twenty-eight" times i.e. Kincaid having tried to kill him that many times in their professional encounters, with Kincaid equally not happy to have Bryant as his bodyguard. Bryant and Kincaid not only battle against each other, but against the clock as Kincaid has to make it to the courtroom by a set time or else the trial ends with Dukhovich's probable acquittal, all the while they still needing to worry about what threats Dukhovich has in their wait, including the mole planted in Interpol.
