Fresh out of prison, George is a small-time crook trying to find his place in a world that has moved on without him. With his tough-guy image no longer carrying much weight, he takes a job as minder and driver for Simone, a high-class call girl, ferrying her from customer to customer. When Simone asks him to track down a young colleague from her King’s Cross past, George is pulled into trouble he is not prepared for.
