Plot summary
Alex Faraday worked for the CIA before she turned to theft, and Kevin Fuller, her former partner, brings her into a job he calls her last. Wayne and Raymond Kelly join them at a Cape Town bank, where a scan of the manager opens the vault. The crew leave with diamonds from a deposit box and, unnoticed, a flash drive. Alex's mask comes off during the robbery, exposing her identity, and she refuses to go along with killing the hostages. She and Kevin hide out at a hotel, where he says the drive carries something valuable. Jessica arrives for a meeting he set up, and a team of killers follows her through the door.
