Synopsis

Ousted by a rival cartel, a brutal drug lord flees Mexico to the distant East. An unwanted child commits a terrible deed and is locked away for years. A Japanese heart surgeon is shunned by the medical community and turns to working as an illegal organ broker. Three lives become entangled in threads of flesh and are plunged deep into a world of blood and bone. Together, they carve out a new criminal empire, but how long can a dynasty last? Destiny is not for mortals to decide. It is cast by the Night and Wind. It is cast by Tezcatlipoca.
