Silk & Poison weaves the dark and seductive tales of Ume and
Toshiro Itou, a Japanese mother and son who find themselves
lured into the dangerous world of rival Chinese Tongs in
19th century California.
Toshiro Itou is seduced into a world of dark passions and
violent desires when he becomes apprentice to Dao Kan Shu, a
fierce assassin in San Francisco's Chinatown. Lessons are
taught in blood, but the rewards surpass the most sensual of
fantasies ... for both men. As the line between student and
teacher is blurred, the Poisoned Dragon himself discovers
that seduction works two ways.
A top ranking man in San Francisco's Chinese underworld, Ren
Yang knew better than to mix business with pleasure. But
when a Japanese debtor repaid the feared crime lord with his
lovely wife, Ren discovers that Ume Itou, "The Tokyo Plum"
is an addiction stronger than the opium sold on his streets.
Caught between the underworld's ruthless hierarchy and the
unexpected desires of their hearts, they must endure tests
neither anticipated.
