Every lead brought them closer to understanding the true scale of the Syndicate’s reach. And it was worse than they could have imagined.
The Nine Dragons had already infiltrated the highest echelons of power. Every time they tried to expose one part of the operation, they found themselves up against a larger, more entrenched system.
