About

The assassin Klaus and his boyfriend Magnus pack up their tricorns and leave the American colonies for a European adventure. Their vacation is derailed when British Intelligence offers Klaus a job with his old war buddy Schmidt. Klaus accepts the job to placate Magnus’s curiosity about the assassin lifestyle.

Schmidt’s team of assassins must escort 50,000 silver coins from Munich to Venice. The team uses a hip music festival called Coachfest as their cover for traveling. Magnus volunteers to pose as a wealthy businessman and the rest of the assassins play the part of his hired bodyguards.

Things get complicated when Klaus discovers his ex is on the team. Francois is a sharpshooter who’s deadly within 10 yards but devastatingly handsome from any range. The job becomes a competition they’re both determined to win.

There’s more to the job than meets the eye. Awaiting the assassins on the road to Venice are bandits, sharpshooters, swordfights and some really big egos.
