Abandoned by both his Valkyrie Kendra and sexy co-star Carrie West, Race spends a lonesome Minnesota winter secluded in his cabin. By spring, he is ready to jumpstart his life again.

Tong asks Race to go to China and teach the authentic version of "The Way of the Intercepting Fist." He commits to three months. Assigned an interpreter, June Wang, Race finds himself attracted to the quiet young woman. But he also likes the attention he is getting from Hao Tsing, a tough-as-nails female kickboxer. Things go smoothly until someone steps up to challenge the American at his own craft. Surprisingly, it is not a Chinese but another Westerner who is determined to keep his own modified version of kung fu dominant in China's growing marketplace. And if the challenger cannot get to Richards, he'll simply use the newest girlfriend as bait...Lost in an ancient culture, his own strategies used against him, will Race Richards survive?
