   Summary

   Zhao Yunlan is a police mole, working undercover to bring the Dixing triad organization down. Ye Zun is his handler. Their relationship is. Difficult, made more strained by the past Ye Zun refuses to disclose, and the frustration and weariness that years of living a false identity have wrought on Zhao Yunlan.

   Then he meets Shen Wei, Dixing's dragonhead, and everything gets even more complicated. Caught between destroying a criminal organization down to the root and the increasingly powerful urge to protect the wrong man, Zhao Yunlan's going to have to face a final reckoning not just with Dixing and Ye Zun, but against the entire corrupt core of Dragon City itself.
