Ashes of the Innocent

When Chinese tourist Kai Lin vanishes from the fictional European nation of Velderia, his mother Mei arrives to find a police force that shot an unarmed man claiming he was a threat. As she navigates cultural barriers and official silence, she uncovers a sprawling criminal enterprise behind the tourist disappearances. Her relentless pursuit of justice, aided by a disillusioned detective, exposes a conspiracy where vigilante righteousness has become indistinguishable from the evil it was meant to destroy.
