- Overview
- A Buddhist anarchist detective thriller set in the shadows of the Lower East Side of New York City. Many greedy hands close a black market deal; a glamorous detective pursues a corporate agent with values containing danger; a rogue lab technician follows them with values containing hope; a chorus of anarchists brings sanity and peace to a world of strife and struggle. A drama of technology, erotics... and politics.
