A long time black government assassin takes on one more assignment that proves to be more complicated than simply killing a man. His mission takes him from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro to the mean streets of Los Angeles following the path of destruction left behind by drug traffickers operating with the blessings of the powers that be. Soon he discovers that unwittingly he has become part of a conspiracy to change the drug power base of the world, and therefore the material dynamics that go with it. For every great fortune created there has been a great crime committed, and as history has shown us, it is always the poor who carry the burden to make it so. Some people are chosen and some people are conscripted, and some people are destined to carry the sins of the world. The black assassin soon realizes that he has been chosen to implement the will of the spirit that he did not believe existed a short time before his awakening, and to protect the essence of the chosen people, from bondage to tutelage, their journey serves a purpose, more so than simply existing.
