✦ Synopsis

Civilizations fell when Cortez and his conquistadors landed in the New World. The Mayans, Aztecs, and the Toltec all vanished into the mists of history. But one tribe survived: the Actatl, and what survived with them was their huge stone idol, Uctut--the sacred rock which demanded blood as sacrifice...human blood. When the stone is despoiled in a New York museum by a young graffiti freak, the Actatl leaders demand revenge on the despoiler and on the country which gave rise to him. Their method of extracting vengeance? Simple--extract the victim's heart. One of their first victims is a U.S. Congressman! Washington's top secret organization--CURE--decides the Actatl are cutting a little too close for comfort and Remo Williams, the Destroyer, and Chiun enter the picture. Their job: Eliminate the eliminators before they're eliminated themselves. Remo and Chiun learn that finding the correct answers is not a job for the fainthearted. Especially when it's their hearts which are up for cutting.
