Synopsis
Will Sears is a small-time financial consultant in Hong Kong who has innocently helped Ronnie Pak to launder the profits from heroin-trafficking. When Pak is arrested, Sears agrees to give his computer records on the Pak family businesses to the police. The disks, along with all his business files, disappear before he can deliver them. With his business and personal life in ruins, and fearing retribution from the Pak family, Sears hides out on Cheung Chau, one of Hong Kong's outlying islands, under nominal police protection. Almost penniless, he stays at a deserted villa, and spends his days on the Praya with an assortment of eccentrics - the Dog Fanciers' Society. On this small island, Sears stumbles on a bizarre heroin smuggling operation, and fears ever more for his safety from gangsters and corrupt police.
