Synopsis:
The time was the early 19th century, when Europeans traders and adventurers first began to penetrate the fabulously rich, perilously forbidding Chinese mainland. An empire was waiting to be raped and pillaged by those strong and ruthless enough to expose the naked weaknesses of Chinese power. Death was the price for weakness, hesitation or ignorance of the ways of the East. And it was in this exciting time and exotic place that a giant of an Englishman, Dirk Struan, set out to turn the desolate island of Hong Kong into an impregnable fortress of British power, and to make himself supreme ruler.
