Confucius said, “Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.â€
Vengeance is always a double-edged sword. Once you start down that dark path, there is often no turning back. Xuan Lang wants vengeance. A man dead inside … with room for nothing else.
A quiet man of seventy years, Xuan exemplifies the kind Asian grandfather. He keeps to himself, running a herbal shop nestled in a peaceful Texas neighborhood of military veterans. He attracts little attention. But those few who knew him could have no knowledge of the sorrow, the pain, and the rage that existed just beneath the surface … that inside the shell of this kind old man lurked the heart of a relentless first-time serial killer.
During Vietnam, six soldiers and their Vietnamese translator, raped and murdered his wife and daughter. At that point in time, the man Xuan was ceased to exist. With a vengeance, he's in the United States to find and kill the men responsible. To honor his deceased wife and daughter, Xuan devoted his life to one task. And, he only has six months to do so.
As the twisted trail of murder begins to unravel, Xuan starts to see the impact of his actions on those acquaintances around him. His new relationships are nearly compromised. With every dead body, the FBI closes in. Will Xuan Lang escape or is it already too late?
