Wat het geword van elke man vir homself? Charlie Flets is 17, taai en ʼn 800m atleet op pad na SA’s. Behalwe vir sy skaaphond buddy, Bravo, en vriend, Jordan Jafta, probeer Charlie sy bes om solo te vlieg. Probeer ... Dis makliker gesê as gedaan, veral as jou buddies moeilikheid kry. Terwyl hy bloed sweet op die atletiekbaan, maak hy seker dat hy nie per ongeluk ʼn barmhartige Samaritaan soos die res van sy gesin word nie.

Skielik word sy eie planne van alleen leef ontspoor, want die joernaal maak ʼn ander wêreld vir hom oop.

Inspector Cheung has to solve the Ai-Mui kidnapping case and is confronted with a case that started in 1998.
