"a good thief can steal something from you, but a great thief can make it disappear..."
"When you've chased something for so long, in the end, you can't help but wonder if it was worth what you gave up to finally get it"
Museum curator by day, notorious art thief by night. Pierre Pelletier, the secret identity of the infamous Black Lotus, is contracted to steal the priceless Han Sapphire necklace. He's able to slip in through a third-story window, break into the safe and free the necklace. Piece of cake. He even leaves behind his signature black lotus flower in the safe to claim credit for the daring heist. The only problem is, when the necklace's owner is found dead the next morning, the black lotus flower is discovered at the scene, making the Black Lotus prime suspect numéro un. As the investigation begins to close in around him, Pierre Pelletier must decide between clearing his name and chasing his fortune and glory.
After being exposed as the not-so-secret identity behind the mysterious thief known as the Black Lotus, Pierre Pelletier, the man behind the myth, has an enormous target on his back. Everyone wants a piece of him, from a scorned police detective, desperate for a redemption, a long-lost relative who wants to get in on the action and even a sinister, underground criminal organization known as the Viper Triad that wants retribution for being wronged at Pierre's hands. The unwritten code of thieves states that one should never compromise the dealings of another thief, but with the €60 million Han Sapphire necklace at the epicenter of it all, it's everyone for themselves.
