The story

In a remote temple in Tibet, a young boy – the Golden Child – demonstrates his mystical powers to the monks of the temple by reviving a dead eastern rosella, which becomes a constant companion and familiar. A mysterious man, Sardo Numspa, has his men break into the temple, slaughter the monks, and abduct the boy. A young woman, Kee Nang, watches a Los Angeles TV show in which independent social worker and private detective Chandler Jarrell talks about a missing girl named Cheryll Mosley.
