Another try on my original log-line.
Title: Whistle While She Works
SteeldownunderPenpusher
When a persistent novice realtor discovers her condescending boss is bankrolling his fancy lifestyle using client escrow funds, she hires an investigator to dig deeper, but he catches on and hires a hit-man to silence her.

“When her boss hires a hitman after she discovers he’s embezzled millions, a novice realtor, must survive the assassination attempts while searching for the smoking gun that will put her boss away.”
Hi Richiev,
Nicely done, that’s a great way to look at it. I had not thought of that angle; it works! thank you! ‘Steeldownunder
I think this reads a bit better:
When she discovers her boss has embezzled millions, a novice realtor must evade his hitman while searching for the smoking gun that will put him away.
Richiev’s and Scott’s versions work well. Only thing I’d consider changing is giving her a characteristic that suggests an arc for her.
