Overview
Letty Dobesh, a thief and con artist, is released from prison. She is faced with a restraining order of protection that restricts her ability to see her 10-year-old son, who is being raised by her mother, Estelle. She regularly sees her parole officer, Christian, who is exasperated by her attitude and actions. During a hotel room robbery Letty, hiding in the closet, overhears a hitman being hired to kill a man's wife and sets out to prevent it, which puts her on a collision course with the killer to the point of involvement in subsequent "hits" and starting a relationship with him.[1]
