Steven Mason, a young and ambitious villain, embarks on a mission to locate his boss's girlfriend, Dominique. However, he quickly realizes that things are not going to be as straightforward as he had anticipated. Upon discovering a dead hand in Mickey Finn's old fridge, Steven knows that he is facing a challenging and complex situation.

As he delves deeper into his search, Steven encounters a diverse range of characters, each with their own unique set of problems and motivations. He meets St. Mary, who has a limp wrist, Dominique's husband, Texas, a semi-retired gigolo, his vicious brother, Greg, rent boys, a psychiatrist, and a corrupt detective.

Steven's investigation leads him to uncover a bitter dispute between two gangs, which further complicates his situation. He becomes caught in the crossfire of division and betrayal, making him both a hunter and a hunted. As he struggles to navigate his loyalties and his attraction to his friend's girlfriend, he also has to consider the unpredictable outcome of his actions, particularly with a caged parrot involved.

Throughout his journey, Steven faces numerous moral dilemmas and must make difficult choices that will shape his fate. He questions the nature of trust, loyalty, and love, and explores the darker corners of the human psyche. The story is filled with suspense, drama, and unexpected twists, keeping the reader engaged and on the edge of their seat.

In the end, Steven must confront his own demons and decide whether to follow his heart or his instincts. The outcome of his mission will have far-reaching consequences for himself and those around him, and it will leave a lasting impact on the world of crime and justice.
