Synopsis
(This is the latest and current edition of Slaves, Spooks & The Praying Mantis: Operation Red Folder.)
Thanks to his uncle's prestigious position at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) in the Philippines, Ron Bello has just landed a gig as a special agent, something he's dreamed about since childhood. After the drudgery of law school, he's ready for a little danger and excitement in life-and he's about to get it.
Ron's new position has one main goal: flush out the leaks prevailing inside the NBI. The corruption within law enforcement agencies makes it necessary for Ron to be a part of a trusted, all-Masonic group of worldwide covert operatives known as the Red Folder. Before long, the Interpol-authorized agents stumble into a massive organized drug cartel, headed by The Praying Mantis of the Hong Kong-based Pů Táng clan. The syndicate produces and smuggles dope from China via Hong Kong to all parts of the world and is not only mired in illegal human trafficking, but stinks to high heaven with corrupt cops.
Ron's orders are to terminate this horrific operation. But things take a drastic turn when Ron learns that his longtime girlfriend, Julie, now living in Hong Kong, has become unwittingly entangled in the cartel. With danger dogging his every move, Ron fights the tangle of the clan's deadly web of deception and crime, knowing that one false move could endanger not only Julie's life, but his own...
