in the criminal underworld, deep inside, he feels empty.

cop Chang, known as the Angel of Vengeance. Chang allows the father to
kill his daughters murderer, then restores order by chopping off the
man's right hand.
Julian's mother Jenna, the head of a powerful
criminal organization, arrives in Bangkok to collect her son's body. She
orders Julian to find his killers and raise hell.

Chang triumphs. A furious Jenna plots revenge and the stage is set for a
bloody journey through betrayal and vengeance towards a final
confrontation and the possibility of redemption.
