A huge tiger shark caught off Sydney throws up a human leg. The only lead for the cops is a tattoo emblazoned on the ankle. When the high-roller owner of the Golden Dragon Restaurant in Chinatown recognizes the tattoo in a photo in the newspaper as belonging to his brother, he retains PI Axis Stone to privately solve the case. A second grizzly murder and Axis realizes he’s caught up in a bitter Triad war over the control of Sydney’s underbelly. The Triad’s demand two million dollars cash plus ownership of the Golden Dragon Restaurant from his client or the sharks will get another feed. The trail leads Axis to Hong Kong for a dangerous meeting with the Dragon Head of the Triad syndicate making the demand.
