Raven ist Profikillerin. Lautlos wie ein Schatten eliminiert sie ihre Opfer, bevor diese ihre Anwesenheit auch nur erahnen. Doch diesmal könnte sie das falsche Ziel im Auge haben: Victor. Ein Killer wie sie. Ein Profi so paranoid wie rücksichtslos und perfekt darin, jeden Verfolger auszuschalten. Er spürt Raven rund um den Globus nach, nicht nur, um die Gefahr zu beseitigen, sondern um herauszufinden, wer ihr den Auftrag zu seiner Ermordung gab. In New York treffen die beiden schließlich aufeinander - ausgerechnet, als dort ein Blackout die Stadt ins Chaos stürzt. Inmitten von Plünderungen und Gewalt kommt es zwischen Raven und Victor zu einem Katz-und-Maus-Spiel, das Manhattan nie mehr vergessen wird.

Nach Rom beordert, trifft Victor dort auf eine ganze Gruppe von Killern, die offensichtlich auf einen spektakulären Einsatz vorbereitet wird.

Victor ist Profikiller. Sein wahrer Name und seine Herkunft: unbekannt. Sein Perfektionismus und seine Erfolgsquote: unerreicht. Für seine Auftraggeber bei der CIA ist Victor die wichtigste Waffe. Und obwohl sich Victor nicht um Fragen von Recht oder Moral schert, gibt es auch für ihn Aufträge, bei denen es nicht nur um Geld geht. Sondern darum, das Böse zu besiegen. Dazu zählt auch sein neuester Job: Victor soll Milan Rados eliminieren, einen ehemaligen Befehlshaber der serbischen Armee.

Victor sembra non avere passato. È risoluto, schivo, non si ferma davanti a niente, il che fa di lui un killer perfetto da assoldare. La sua prossima missione è raggiungere il sicario olandese Felix Kooi ad Algeri ed eliminarlo. Una volta portato a termine il suo compito, potrà tornarsene alla propria esistenza solitaria nella gelida Islanda. Ma la CIA, uno dei suoi principali committenti, ha altri piani: dovrà fingersi la sua stessa vittima e risalire a colui che ha assoldato Felix Kooi.

When Victor is arrested for a murder that, for once, he didn't commit, escape must surely be inevitable for a hitman of his ferocity.

Quickly, however, his fellow the prisoners realise that he's not trapped in there with them: they are in a cage, with the most dangerous of enemies. And Victor has a traitor to find.
