Inspired by true events.
In 1959 Hong Kong, a city divided by empire and ideology, Superintendent Victor Cheung stands at the fault line between two worlds. To the British Crown, he is the model colonial officer - loyal, brilliant, indispensable. To the Communist Party, he is Comrade Zhang, their most deeply embedded mole in the colonial system.
Across the harbour, his blood brother Leonard Ho has become a rising power within the 14K Triad - the Kuomintang's secret weapon in its underground war against Beijing. Between them stands Lily Shao, a film star and humanitarian who still believes Hong Kong can remain untouched by politics.
When a Mainland scientist disappears en route to the West, the city becomes a chessboard where every move carries mortal risk. As Victor and Leo hunt for the same man on opposite sides of the ideological divide, Lily is drawn into their struggle, forced to choose between loyalty, conscience, and survival.
As betrayals multiply, the line between service and faith blurs. The final reckoning unfolds on the Lo Wu Bridge - the threshold between Hong Kong and China - where Victor must decide which nation, and which self, he can live or die for.
Rooted in historical truth and inspired by the real-life career of the first Chinese head of the Hong Kong CID, No Harbour for Ghosts exposes the moral cost of divided allegiance. It is a spy story stripped of glamour - a tragedy of men who serve two masters and find no harbour in either.
