Roll credits over a power ballad by a band like Heart or Foreigner.
Angela Perez is a woman living a carefully constructed lie. To the outside world, she is "Alexandra," a high-end art consultant catering to the whims of corrupt politicians and cartel lords. She is cool, distant, and untouchable. But the audience knows the truth: Angela is deep undercover.
Flashbacks reveal that Angela was once a brilliant forensic accountant in New York whose testimony dismantled a crime syndicate. Now, in the Witness Protection Program, she has been reinserted into the field by a shadowy government handler to follow a money trail that leads to a mysterious tycoon named Victor Kael.
The catch? Her cover identity, "Alexandra," is the alias of a real woman—a woman who was murdered two years ago. Angela is wearing a dead woman’s life, and Kael was the one who killed her.
