Arby says no. A white guy rummaging through Chinatown would stand out like a sore thumb. He'd get nowhere.What changes his mind is the collateral damage murder of his lover, Ingrid Ventura, by a Chinatown assassin whose real target was Lilly. Arby's single-minded purpose becomes finding the man responsible for Ingy's death and ripping his heart out. His only hope of doing so is to enter Chinatown's underbelly, find Biyu and work from there to Ingy's killer.But Chinatown doesn't give up its secrets so easily, especially those involving the Civil War being waged on the Chinese mainland.
