«When life is the shadow of death»
Working with a crack team, Ho Kwok-fai, known as a 'Brain', kills his victims by trapping them in well crafted 'accidents' that look like unfortunate mishaps but are in fact perfectly staged acts of crime.

Once, during one botched mission something goes wrong leaving a one member of Brain's crew dead and the team in disarray. Was it an accident too, or has someone beat them at their own game?
