Adultery, murder and corruption collide violently in this story of an unexpected love that crosses Australian and Chinese cultural barriers in Hong Kong, Can the lovers keep their forbidden affair secret amidst the tensions of a police investigation and subsequent murder trial? This story explores the tensions and the cost of breaking taboos within a cross-cultural relationship from the perspective of the culture and traditions of a Hong Kong Chinese woman, caught between the demands of her profession and her undeniable love for the unsavory man who becomes the only suspect in the murder she is investigating as a senior police officer. Forced to resign through conflict of duty and invited to join the Australian Defense Team, her despair and self-doubt are lifted by their encouragement, support and protection, not to mention their irrepressible Aussie humor.
