Yellowthread Street

The Hong Bay district of Hong Kong is a spectacularly seedy maze of cut-rate brothels, betting shops, and other less wholesome enterprises. Keeping the peace 'sort of' are the cops of the Yellowthread Street Station. They're an intrepid bunch, but even their formidable skills are taxed by the Bay's latest series of mishaps, which begin with a fellow near the fishmarket chopping up his wife with an axe. Meanwhile, notorious madam Hot Time Alice Ping and her colleague Osaka the Disemboweler are plotting revenge on the Mongolian, a giggling, freelance extortionist with a knack for hacking off folks' fingers. And then there's the tourist from New Jersey who seems to have misplaced his wife.
