Detective Chief Inspector Harry Feiffer of Hong Kong's Yellowthread Street Police Station can't help but feel all cut up when several innocent people get ""rubbed out in cinemas by a psycho."" The motiveless crimes are the work of a derringer-wielding moviegoer who apparently prefers popguns to popcorn. The second in a harmless enough series--it goes down as easily as a kumquat.
