Sinopsis

Japan is a fascinating place, but it also has a dark side. Hidden deep underground, it sometimes bubbles to the surface.
 
On holiday, James Ray's world is shattered when he witnesses a Yakuza assassination, narrowly escaping death. His nightmare is far from over. Branded a killer, he is accused of six murders and framed with doctored video and damning evidence, pitting the system against him.
 
In the shadows of a penitentiary hospital, James strikes a deal with the CIA and plunges into the dark underbelly of illegal arms sales and human trafficking. Racing against the clock to clear his name, can James outwit his enemies and prove his innocence, or will the underbelly of society destroy him?
