It tells the story of Mike Fallon (Adkins), a lethal assassin known as the Accident Man for his signature style of always making sure the hit [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident looks like an accident]]. Mike has what he thinks is the perfect life, until he finds out that his ex-girlfriend was murdered and realizes that it was a hit carried out by some of his associates. From that moment on, Fallon goes on goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge against his coworkers to find out who executed the hit and who ordered it.
