Peter Devereaux is a former CIA agent who is asked by the man he worked for to extract a woman who is in Russia and is presently close to a man running for President, who is believed to have committed crimes during the Chechen war. She can give them the name of someone who can prove it. His friend says that she will only come to him. So he goes and she gets the info and tries to get out but the man finds out and tries to stop her.—rcs0411@yahoo.com

In Lausanne, Switzerland, retired CIA agent Peter Devereaux is visited by his former chief John Hanley, who convinces him to extract agent Natalia Ulanova from Russia. Natalia is the assistant of the Russian candidate for President Arkady Federov and has collected evidence of war crimes committed by the candidate during the Chechen War and requested Peter to help her. However, during the operation, CIA chief Perry Weinstein believes that Natalia has been captured by the Russians and orders agent David Mason to kill her. Natalia gives photos and the name Mira Filipova to Peter before dying, and the agent informs Hanley. Peter kills the CIA agents, but when he sees Mason, he spares the agent who was trained by him. When Mason meets Weinstein, he learns that Peter and Natalia had a love affair in the past, and the agent is assigned to kill him. Peter heads to Belgrade, where he saves the social worker Alice Fournier who might know where Mira is from Federov's assassin Alexa and from Mason. Soon Peter learns dirty secrets about Arkady Federov and the CIA and has to flee with Alice to save their lives and expose the crimes to the world.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Having served the bureau loyally for years, the lethal and highly trained former-CIA agent, Peter Devereaux, retreats to Switzerland to enjoy a peaceful life. However, before long, Peter finds himself drawn back into the fray for one last mission, when he's tasked with protecting the crucial witness, Alice Fournier. In the meantime, Peter renews his license to kill and meets his match in the form of David Mason, the protégé he once trained. Now, with no one to trust and with the bullets flying from all sides, Peter must survive long enough to keep Alice safe and root out the masterful mole who has put his entire mission in jeopardy. Will the notorious "November Man" live to fight another day?—Nick Riganas

Veteran CIA officer Peter Devereaux (Pierce Brosnan) retires from the agency in 2008 after his partner and protege David Mason (Luke Bracey), who disobeyed Devereaux's orders not to fire on an assassin, accidentally killed a child during a mission to protect a US Ambassador in Montenegro. Devereaux retires to Switzerland and opens up a coffee shop.

Devereaux's former boss, John Hanley (Bill Smitrovich), seeks him out and recruits him to extract a deep cover CIA operative from Russia, Natalia Ulanova (Mediha Musliovic). Ulanova has been posing as the aide of presidential candidate and former Russian Army General Arkady Fedorov and knows the name of a witness who can tie Fedorov to war crimes. Hanley says Natalia will not turn over the name unless she is brought in and wants Peter's help getting out of Russia. Hanley also tells Peter that Fedorov's personal assassin Alexa has been assigned to murder all of Fedorov's former associates who have knowledge of his past crimes.

Unbeknownst to Devereaux, Mason's own team is dispatched to extract Natalia as well, with CIA station chief Perry Weinstein (Will Patton) in charge of the operation. Mason's team is likewise unaware of Hanley's actions. Natalia manages to break into Fedorov's personal safe and copy several photos depicting a disheveled young girl and a younger Fedorov. Natalia manages to escape and contacts Mason's team to ready her for extraction. However, Fedorov notices that his personal key is still in the safe and alerts the FSB, who chase Natalia through the streets of Moscow until Peter arrives and rescues her. Natalia, though surprised to see Peter, gives him a name, Mira Filipova, which Peter relays to Hanley.

Mason's team doesn't realize that Devereaux has Natalia and thinks she may have been captured by the Russians. Weinstein gives the order to kill Natalia, despite Hanley's objections. Mason kills Natalia with a sniper rifle; Natalia hands Peter the cell phone containing the incriminating photos before she dies. Peter notices the CIA drone that had been following his car heading towards the parking garage where Mason fired from. He goes to the garage and quickly kills all of Mason's CIA team until he runs into Mason at gunpoint. Stunned, Mason and Devereaux walk away from each other.

Hanley looks up files on Mira Filipova (Olga Kurylenko), but a CIA strike team breaks into his house and subdues him. Weinstein debriefs Mason on his encounter with his former mentor and shows him pictures of Devereaux and Natalia in a relationship, even though Devereaux told Mason in the past that spies should not have relationships because significant others can be used as leverage against each other. Langley has ordered Devereaux killed, as not stopping him would mean more field agents would be killed out of revenge.

Meanwhile, New York Times reporter Edgar Simpson tracks down refugee case worker Alice Fournier (Olga Kurylenko) and requests her assistance to write an expose of Fedorov and his alleged war crimes during the 2nd Chechen War. The assassin Alexa arrives in Belgrade, where a hacker contact notifies her that Alice will meet Edgar in a restaurant. Peter also arrives in Belgrade and knocks out the CIA strike team that secured Hanley's apartment. Peter discovers that Alice is Mira's contact and impersonates the CIA strike team to manipulate them into tracking Alice's phone.

Peter manages to rescue Alice from the assassin and Mason's CIA team. Alice says that Mira pretended to be mute around Fedorov, who had sexually abused her during the 2nd Chechen War. Mira is able to understand Russian since her parents are university professors and overheard every single conversation Fedorov had - including plans for a false flag conspiracy to bomb a building held by the Russian Army to justify the 2nd Chechen War and the seizure of Chechen oil fields. When Peter confronts Denisov, one of Fedorov's former associates, he confirms the conspiracy and says the CIA actively helped Fedorov.

Weinstein gives Mason additional motivation to kill Devereaux by showing Mason how Devereaux disparaged Mason's performance in reviews, recommending he be fired due to his impulsiveness. Mason decides to go on a date with his next-door neighbor Sarah (Eliza Taylor), and ends up sleeping with her. Unbeknownst to him, Devereaux and Alice have broken into the apartment across the street and are observing their departure and arrival. Devereaux sends off Alice with cash and disposable cell phones before breaking into Mason's apartment. Devereaux holds Sarah hostage and tests Mason's character by cutting her femoral artery before fleeing. Mason chooses to save Sarah, buying her time until an ambulance arrives.

Fedorov arrives in Belgrade for an energy conference, where he meets Alexa. Alexa kills Edgar at his home when Alice tries to meet with him, but Alice manages to escape. Peter infiltrates the CIA black site where Hanley is being held and confronts him about the CIA's involvement with Fedorov in Chechnya. Hanley claims Weinstein aided Fedorov. Hanley also states that Mira's parents were university professors that taught her to speak Russian, revealing that Alice Fournier is actually Mira Filipova. Mason later realizes that the real Alice Fournier died years ago, and Mira took her identity.

Alice disguises herself as a prostitute and goes to Fedorov's hotel to try and kill him, as he murdered both of her parents before abducting and abusing her. Peter manages to track her down, kills Fedorov's security, and plays Russian Roulette with Fedorov on camera to make him give the name of the CIA agent who conspired with him. Fedorov states it was Hanley, which Alice confirms after seeing him in a photo. Peter and Alice escape the hotel, but not before Peter kills more of Mason's CIA team and knocking out Mason himself, giving him the recorded confession before leaving. However, when Mason and fellow operative Celia try and confront Weinstein with the evidence against Hanley, they find Hanley has replaced Weinstein. Langley has decided that Federov is worth keeping around despite his war crimes and is allowing Hanley to run the show.

Thinking his mission is over, Peter tells Alice to disappear before trying to call his daughter Lucy. However, Peter finds out that Hanley has ordered Mason to kidnap Lucy. Alice offers to give herself up for Lucy, but Peter convinces her to go to a train station and wait for him there. Alice sits at a computer terminal and emails the editor of the New York Times with her story of Fedorov's war crimes, co-crediting Edgar with the story. Alexa manages to track Alice to her computer terminal, but Alice manages to knock Alexa out with a large shovel after a brief chase.

Peter meets with Hanley and Mason's men and gives Mason a bogus bus station address to send him on a wild goose chase. Hanley then unravels his true motives for his involvement in the apartment bombings, Hanley tells Peter that once Fedorov has won the presidential elections, he intends to blackmail the Russian president with his involvement in the false flag attacks and force him into making Russia join NATO. This would not only effectively eliminate any competition to US hegemony in the western hemisphere, but also unite the west and the former Eastern Bloc for, what Hanley believes, "the next up-coming war with the Middle East".

However, Mason and Celia trace the phone call from Lucy and her kidnappers, and David quickly kills the kidnappers and rescues Lucy. Mason returns to Hanley and Peter without Alice, and Mason and Devereaux kill the rest of Hanley's men before holding Hanley at gunpoint. Peter thanks his former protege and escapes with his daughter to the train station where Alice is waiting for them.

Later, Alice testifies at the International Criminal Court about Fedorov's war crimes and conspiracy with Hanley, sinking Fedorov's campaign. He is later shot in the head by a sniper while relaxing on his yacht.
