Plagued by guilt and the spectre of murder, Lee’s life takes an unexpected twist when he discovers that his unintended victim was, in fact, a notorious serial killer.
Unveiling a supernatural ability to identify those he deems “bad seeds”, Lee transforms into a mysterious vigilante, driven by a quest to deliver justice to individuals who have committed unspeakable evils in the shadows.
