When a stunning blonde appeared in the office of private detective Elvis Cole, he could not even imagine that this innocent visit could drag him into bloody mafia showdowns. While searching for a stolen antique Japanese book and the teenage daughter of its owner, Elvis Cole and his companion Joe Pike encounter the ruthless Yakuza and their incomprehensible laws of honor. But Cole and Pike have their own ideas of honor and their own moral principles.
