Plot

Beneath the striking beauty and graceful facade of Anna Poliatova lies a profound ability to dispatch enemies with calculated precision. The Russian model harbors a secret life as a highly trained assassin, dealing in the covert operations of the KGB. Recruited for her unique skill set, Anna is trapped in a world of espionage, compelled to complete missions under the command of her cold and calculating handler, Olga. Despite her formidable exterior, Anna yearns for a life of freedom, away from the constant control and deadly assignments dictated by her superiors.

Struggling to escape her double life, Anna meticulously plans her exit strategy, all while executing high-profile assassination jobs that put her at the center of an intelligence war between the KGB and the CIA. Her contact in the West, the charming but ruthless CIA agent Lenny Miller, offers a way out, promising liberation from her Russian overlords in exchange for her cooperation. Tensions escalate as alliances are questioned and trust becomes a scarce commodity. The line between deception and survival blurs as Anna uses her intellect and strength to manipulate her handlers and stay one step ahead in a dangerous game of cat and mouse where any wrong move could be her last.
