Sun Piao is released from Ankang, the psychiatric hospital for dissidents, and is demoted to working in the vice squad - a non-job, since Chinese authorities claim there is no vice in the People's Republic. But before long, Piao is trying to solve a string of murders, in which elite army officers are implicated.

Shanghai-based Senior Inspector Sun Piao has recently been released from Ankang - a mental hospital where he was sent for his own safety after his last case.
