An elaborate plan is devised that involves him teaching in a rural Chinese village, which Ed soon discovers it isn't his idea of a good time. In fact, when he sees a chance to quit, he takes it. But just before he can get out of Dodge, a local girl is murdered. Suspect? That Chinese teacher from America: Ed. With the help of his female colleague, Ed sets out to clear his name, uncovering a web of deceit in a village that's on the verge of becoming a lucrative jade mine. The deeper he digs, the more horrors he unearths. With memories of his sister drawing uncanny parallels to the victim's life, possibility of redemption and revenge looms.
