He never expected signs of infidelity. Although yearning for a family, he risks his career to uncover the truth about her. Lurking in Bostons shadows, he encounters crimes that he is compelled to intervene in even though it frustrates his purpose. The media pick up and play up his elderly martial arts persona. Worse, his boss assigns him to cover this hot story of the man dubbed the "Dandy Vigilante," and then pressures him to slant his stories against vigilantism, undoubtedly as a favor to the mayor of Boston. A connection to the city administration hits too close to home, and the reporter expands his investigation to murky political corruption while his emotions contract to a personal hell. He and his wife finally try to reconcile, but police arrest her for a high-profile murder. Then he is, toofor the same murder. Helping her will implicate him, unless he gets exculpatory evidencefor both of them; otherwise, he will lose everything that matters. While on the lam, another high-profile murder occurs, and a cascade of obstacles keep him from the evidence he needs. Laws and powerful people stand in his way, but he is willing to break them alleven if he has to kill. Deep connections to his psychological past finally reach for him, as his wife knows, which will either save his life or end it.
