The Equalizer 2 (2018)

Former Marine and DIA operative Robert McCall now lives in Boston. He works as a Lyft driver and assists the less fortunate with the help of his close friend and former DIA colleague, Susan Plummer. McCall travels to Istanbul to retrieve the nine-year-old daughter of a bookstore owner, Grace Braelick, who was kidnapped by her abusive Turkish father. He also helps Sam Rubinstein, an elderly Holocaust survivor looking for a painting of his sister who died in the Nazi death camps. McCall returns home to find that his apartment’s courtyard has been vandalized. He accepts an offer from Miles Whittaker, a young resident with an artistic but troubled background, to paint a mural on the walls.

Susan and DIA officer Dave York, McCall’s former partner, are called to investigate the murder-suicide of an agency affiliate and his wife in Brussels. At their hotel, Susan is accosted in her room and killed, presumably during a robbery. McCall determines that the expertly delivered fatal stab suggested that she was targeted, and that the murder-suicide was staged. McCall informs York of his findings. During one of his Lyft runs, McCall is attacked by an assassin posing as a passenger. McCall kills the man and retrieves his mobile phone. He discovers that York’s number is on the phone’s call list and confronts York at his home. York admits that he became a mercenary after feeling used and discarded by the government and confesses that he killed Susan, as she would have figured out that he was behind the Brussels killings.
