| Overview: | This enthralling police series ran for just two seasons; but in creating the first strong and sympathetic Anglo-Chinese character, it made a huge impact.
John Ho is a Detective Sergeant in London's East End. He's an unlikely cop: he's quiet, he's a loner, and, though a Cockney, his blood is pure Chinese. But don't be deceived. This detective is tough and remorseless.
John Ho might have escaped the Chinese community he was born into, but there are all too many--inside and outside the police force--who are still pretty quick to remind him of his roots. Unfortunately, his unorthodox methods seem to play into the hands of a prejudiced chief who sees him as a disobedient misfit and is eager to get him off his patch.
John, however, is fired by an obsession that requires him to be a great detective. He is determined to avenge his father's disgrace at the hands of a corrupt policeman. Working his cases alongside his private revenge, John edges ever closer to bringing his quarry to justice...
