Default need to open rear latch

I need to open the rear hatch but I have no idea how to do it. The previous owner didnt give me the keys for the door locks.
What options do I have?
Locksmith?
Cylinders?
I could really use a drawing to figure out what to move inside the lock mechanism to open it.
THanks!
