Toronto has learned to live with violence. On Queen Street, Yamada Arashi is known as a quiet, disciplined head chef. Precise. Controlled. Invisible. Until the night everything breaks. When Mia Christie—the woman he loves—is dragged into a brutal criminal incident, Arashi doesn’t call the police. He picks up a sword. Given a blade by a mysterious man and bound by a single rule—“Sword for defence”—Arashi steps into a world where guns rule the streets and hesitation means death. Outnumbered. Outgunned. Out of time. But in the tight spaces between trigger pulls and broken breaths, the sword still has its place. As the city begins to whisper his name, Arashi must decide— Is he protecting the innocent… or becoming something far more dangerous?
