Synopsis
Old Tseung asks Hawaiian Eye to find out who murdered his grandson Chu. Despite a college education, Chu Tseung had worked as a houseboy for Lady Blanche Carlton, the widow of a government official in British Hong Kong, who now lives in Honolulu. Tracey Steele visits the widow and encounters three other men: the Rev Matthew Webster, tea merchant John Hunter, and ne'er-do-well Dan Gordon. All four act suspiciously, and Steele soon discovers that there is indeed "no honor among thieves".
