Interpol suspected Jorgensen's firm of money laundering, based on anonymous tips. When Jorgensen finds out there is a mole in his firm, he suspects Rosalind and has her murdered by a hitman from the Barcelona branch of the firm. Kevin then swears to avenge Rosalind's death.

With the help of Tessa Jansen, an Interpol agent, Kevin learns that Jorgensen has had his father murdered when he was young, in order to groom Kevin as an assassin for his firm.
