Quick recap

Cassie Black is out of prison and working at a Porsche dealership, but she secretly watches her daughter, Jodie, who was adopted and is about to move to Paris. To run off with her, Cassie goes back to stealing. The target is a high roller at a Las Vegas casino. Trapped in the suite during the "void moon," Cassie sees the guest die and takes $2.5 million in mob money. The casino hires investigator Jack Karch, tied to Max's death, who kidnaps Jodie. In the showdown, Cassie pushes Karch out a window, escapes with her daughter, returns her to her adoptive parents and drives off with the money.
