Description
In 1991, Hong Kong is on the brink of change as it prepares for Chinese rule. A government-trained assassin, Geoff Howells, is pulled out of retirement to eliminate a key target: Simon Ng, leader of the Chinese Mafia.
However, when Ng's daughter is kidnapped and he disappears, the situation becomes increasingly complex. Patrick Dugan, a Hong Kong policeman with family ties to Ng, finds himself drawn into a deadly web of violence and international espionage.
This gripping thriller explores the darker side of human nature, where loyalty, duty, and morality are constantly tested.
