Quan, a Nung Chinese, is a humble London businessman whose long-buried past erupts in a revenge-fueled vendetta when the only person left for him to love, his teenage daughter, dies in a senseless act of politically motivated bombing of a clothing store. Both the British government and the Northern Ireland Deputy First Minister, Liam Hennessy, are elusive about the true perpetrators of the terrorist act and want to use the bombing to negotiate terms for a new political agreement benefiting both sides. Thus, failing to get the names of the bombers from Scotland Yard, Quan goes to Belfast and focuses on the Deputy First Minister, whose own past may hold the clues to the identities of the elusive killers. In response, Hennessy brings a ‟tracker‟ to find and be rid of Quan. Amongst the political shadow plays and special agents in pursuit, Quan is then engaged in a cat-and-mouse game, during his relentless search to find the terrorists and execute his revenge. ~~ This movie is a co-production by China, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
