About ‘The Killer’
“The Killer” follows Zee, one of the world’s most skilled assassins. She’s as deadly as she is efficient, and in the Paris underworld she’s more than earned the nickname “Queen of the Dead.” She gets a new assignment from her shadowy handler and mentor, and she thinks it’s a routine job with a fat paycheck on the other end until she comes up against the reality of who she’s being asked to kill.
She ultimately refuses to end the life of a young blind woman while on assignment, and is immediately turned on by her closest confidants. With her alliances in tatters and a police investigator hot on her trail, Zee delves deeper and deeper into a criminal conspiracy that could even shed more light on the mystery of her own tragic past.
