Synopsis
Steve Recka, un racketteur puissant et influent, contrôle sa ville d'une main de fer, tout en maintenant une relation avec sa maîtresse, Madame Lan Ying. Lorsqu'il rencontre Margaret Van Kase, une mondaine sans intérêt pour son pouvoir ni sa fortune, Steve se retrouve bouleversé et fait tout pour la conquérir. Ses efforts frénétiques le poussent à négliger Lin Yang, sa fidèle compagne, dans sa quête de conquête amoureuse. Le film explore les conflits entre pouvoir, amour et obsession.
