Synopsis/Details
In London, nightclub DJ Noelle Dalton tries to prevent her husband Adam, an MI5 agent, from attending an international security conference where he is tasked with stopping a bomb threat. Both are members of The Foxen Collective, an underground vigilante group. Later in the conference, Jane Siegel, an assassin sent to kill Dalton, incapacitates him before he can disarm the bombs. However, before she can kill him, the bombs detonate, killing Dalton*.
The next day, Noelle sees a wounded Jane being brought to the Collective's hideout by Roger Flanagan, the Collective's leader. Noelle vengefully tries to kill Jane but is prevented by Roger. After Jane recovers, The Collective inquire her involvement in the bombing but find her innocent. Afterwards, Jane offers her help in finding the person responsible for the bombing. The Collective reluctantly accept on behalf of Mickey Dharma, another member who had died when rescuing Jane* from the Hoplite Syndicate, a citywide crime organization.
The Collective send Jane to the Royal London Hospital to uncover a Syndicate-run organ trafficking ring and rescue IT engineer Ramya Bhutta, who Roger looks to recruit into the Collective. In the hospital, Jane manages to acquire information and locate Ramya but is forced to battle her way out. Roger sends Noelle to pick up Jane and Ramya, but she leaves Jane behind.
Nevertheless, Jane manages to return to the hideout, where she is inducted into the Collective. She also encounters Noelle in the hideout, who expresses disdain to her. Jane responds by offering Noelle chance for revenge once she finishes helping the Collective, to which Noelle agrees.
