But when Geoff decides he wants out, his leader finds a way to keep him in line.Chin Ho sets his sights on Geoffs little sister, Barbara, threatening to set her up as a prostitute if Geoff doesnt toe the line. In order to keep this from happening, Geoff finds himself the victim of blackmail. To save his sister, he must participate in a dance competition that could save Barbaras life and his ownbut will he be able to keep up with Chin and his other opponents? Torn by loyalty to his friends and a need to be free of Chins threats and tyranny, Geoff works hard to prepare for the competition. Barbara is not yet in the clear, but he would do anything to keep his sister safe. Soon, a simple gang shoplifting goes terribly wrong, and murder is mentioned. Geoff knows he should go to the police, but if he isnt careful, he may end up leaving the gangin a body bag.
