After being thrown off the force, disgraced ex-cop Hondo makes his living giving security advice to a range of dubious underworld characters.

Mr Yasuda pays well for Hondo's anti-surveillance advice in the hope that it might thwart the law enforcement agencies who are determined to finally put the old man away, but when Hondo begins an affair with his client’s beloved daughter it seems that - even by his standards - he’s sailing close to the wind.

Caught between the local cops, some vengeful Yakuza, and a mysterious underworld organisation called Instant Karma Inc - Hondo is going to have to rely on more than just his wits to survive.

With his options rapidly running out, Hondo’s forced into an unlikely alliance that - if he gets very, very lucky - just might let him walk out of all this alive.
