Opis

Detective Sally Chan is ready to head home for her first early night in six months when a stranger walks into Scotland Yard and asks for her by name. He gives her a message that makes her blood run cold, three First Class Tickets to Hong Kong, and a photo that instantly convinces her that she and her team have no choice but to get involved in the case. It's a picture of a prominent member of the Royal Family with a heroin needle sticking out of his arm. Two nights later she's having dinner with Wong Zhi, the boss of the Black Sun, Hong Kong's most powerful triad. Wong Zhi asks Sally, Inspector Ian McLean, and Detective Thomas McMillan to look into the death of his second-in-command. In exchange, he offers information that could either keep the royal junkie's privacy intact, or bring down the monarchy. It's a case that pushes Sally, Thomas, and McLean to the breaking point - one in which everyone they meet may be culpable and no one is what he seems.
