Suspense | Thriller

A container ship smuggling Chinese refugees runs aground on Alcatraz, its crew murdered with deadly precision. While the police and FBI search for clues, private investigator Cape Weathers suspects a professional assassin was involved, someone like his partner Sally. But she's gone missing, and when Cape starts asking questions about her past, it’s not long before he has a dead body in his trunk and a price on his head. From the back alleys of San Francisco to the secret societies of Hong Kong’s criminal underworld, Cape soon discovers that sometimes the only justice is revenge.
