After a botched Triad smuggling run, the young couple is torn apart: she is forced into the role of a kingpin’s reluctant moll, while he flees to the Philippines and becomes a contract killer. Six years later a chance meeting reunites them, but lingering feelings and the threats of their former lives drag them into extreme danger.
