Mit hoher Intelligenz und einem zynischen, rationalen Blick auf die Menschheit wehrt sich Kane auf die einzige Weise, die ihm einfällt - er wird kriminell. Als er durch einen Bankraub Zugang in die Welt des organisierten Verbrechens von Rio de Janeiro erhält, verändert sich sein Leben komplett. Schnell muss er erkennen, dass man sich in dieser brutalen Umgebung keine Freunde macht. Als seine besten Freunde den Preis des Verrats bezahlen, trifft Kane auf eine mysteriöse Diebin des Katzenvolkes der T'zun, die ihn unter ihre Fittiche nimmt. Gemeinsam gehen sie auf eine gefährliche Reise, die ihn für immer prägen wird. Aus dem vorsichtigen Jungen wird der Mann, den man später nur noch den Silver Wolf nennen wird.
