Chen Li, a student from Shenzhen University in China, wins a dream scholarship to Queen’s University in Belfast. Cleverly groomed by a young, handsome lecturer, she finds herself trapped in a high-end escort service that caters for wealthy and prominent personnel. Unable to endure the increasingly prurient demands of the clientele she is forced to entertain, she flees from her apartment and tries to hide in cheap lodgings on the outskirts of the city. She is easily located by agents of The Shadow, a dark, mysterious personage who owns the Escort Service. Determined to make an example of the runaway, The Shadow brutally murders her and casually informs the police of the body’s whereabouts. Detective Inspector Williams is tasked with bringing the murderer to justice. His track record isn’t good. Will he succeed this time?
