In the year 2025, life is decadent, and the major recreational drug is an aphrodisiac patch. When applied on a woman, it instantly brings her hormonal levels to the plateau phase, just prior to orgasm. Initially designed to assist women in the menopausal phase of life, it became legalized as an over-the-counter drug that is now sold in dispensing machines. Anyone eighteen years or older can buy the patch for ten dollars, making it widely distributed throughout the United States.
A drug lord from Columbia wants to sell the drug in China, where he anticipates making billions of dollars in profits. But the ruling council there denies his request. To force a positive response and cooperation with his distribution plans, the drug lord abducts Wang, the son of the premier of China. China has three days to acquiesce to his demands, or Wang will be killed.
The premier calls on the president of the United States for assistance. The president sends two enlightened people with special powers, Admiral Aaron Mullins, also known as the Pendragon, and Connie Chunxia, a special liaison on International Affairs, to rescue Wang. But he has been hidden in a Malayan jungle where dangers lurk everywhere. Just when Connie and the Pendragon think they have succeeded, the drug lord surfaces with an entirely new identity and is bent on sadistic revenge.
