English Summary:
Jack, a gunsmith and contract killer, and his lover, Ingrid, are relaxing in Sweden. Jack becomes alarmed by a trail of footprints in the snow and pulls Ingrid towards shelter. Sniper gunshots ring out. Ingrid sees Jack pull a gun from his pocket and shoot the sniper. Knowing his identity is in jeopardy, and with little hesitation, Jack shoots and kills Ingrid. He flees to Rome and contacts his handler, Pavel, who insists that Jack cannot stay in Rome. Pavel sends him to Castelvecchio, a small town in the mountains of Abruzzo. Jack becomes nervous, and disposing of the cell phone Pavel gave him, goes to nearby Castel del Monte instead—where he uses the name Edward.
While in Abruzzo, Jack contacts Pavel, who sets him up with another job. He meets Mathilde, an assassin who wants him to build her a custom sniper rifle. He also begins patronizing a prostitute, Clara, and they begin a relationship separate from her business duties. Jack meets with Mathilde to test the weapon. She is impressed by the craftsmanship, but asks him to make a few more adjustments. Later, Jack realizes that he is being followed by an assassin from Sweden, whom he kills.
Hungarian Summary:
Jack mesteri fokon űzi a bérgyilkolás művészetét, nem is szenved hiányt megbízásokban. Amikor egy svédországi "munkája" nem a tervek szerint végződik, úgy gondolja, a következő lesz az utolsó. Egy gyönyörű olasz kisvárosba kell utaznia, ám a korábbi kudarc miatt kissé paranoiás, mindenkiben saját gyilkosát véli felfedezni. Később - saját magát is meglepve ezzel - összebarátkozik a helybéli Benedetto atyával, valamint románcba bonyolódik egy olasz lánnyal, Clarával. Jack tehát kilép az árnyékból, de ezzel kihívja maga ellen a sorsot.
