Roger is Norway's most successful headhunter, and his wife Diana is beautiful and also owns a luxurious gallery. With Diana's introduction, Roger met Callas from the Netherlands; the former director of an electronics company, the military-born and sexy, seemed like the perfect candidate for any high-level job. Roger, who was in financial crisis, gradually topped the collection of Callas's home, a famous painting worth more than seven figures in euros. It didn't take much effort for Roger to sneak into Callas' house, but when he was about to leave, he found something he shouldn't have found, making him quickly become prey in the eyes of others. There is no free lunch in the world, everyone has to pay for it. The headhunting game has begun.

Roger: Rule #1: Make sure you know everything about those you visit. 2: Never spend more than 10 minutes. Every extra minute increases the chance of someone returning home unexpectedly. 3: Do not leave DNA traces. 4: Don't waste time getting an expensive reproduction. Even a simple forgery will go unnoticed for weeks. 5: Sooner or later, one of two things will happen. You find a work of art so valuable that you never need to worry again, or... you'll get caught.
