Liang Wei, the merciless sovereign of the Chinese syndicate, is a citadel of power forged from money and blood. His fortune rewrites laws and purchases silence, yet his empire is hemorrhaging.

He lifts it into the dim light, his narrowing eyes reflecting the cold metal. 'Korean?' The hunt is no longer theoretical. It has a scent.
