According to Shorty, the homeless man who found him, he was holding a battered driver's license, so they go in search of the owner with no luck.<br><br>Then a man approaches them on the street. His name is Richard Wolfe, and he claims he and Mick are lovers. After Richard convinces Mick he's telling the truth, the three men set out to discover who wants Mick dead and why. A difficult task, as Mick has yet to regain his memory.<br><br>One suspect is Mick's older brother, Trenton, who manages one of Mick's clubs and resents the fact their father gave them to Mick instead of him. Another is the man on the driver's license, who works for Trenton. Or ...? All they have to do is figure it out, before someone tries again to take Mick out of the picture permanently.

Hawk and Wolfe

“Sweat, Mick. Lots of sweat will do it, too.”


Richard pulled out, sat up, and removed the condoms, knotting them together. “Shower time, and then sleep. I suspect we’ve got a long day ahead of us tomorrow.”


Since Mick agreed, he followed Richard into the bathroom, joining him in the shower. They did nothing more than wash and then dry each other, with a few chaste kisses in the process. When they returned to bed, they spooned together as Mick remembered they always had, and fell asleep.5


“What do you plan on saying to Trenton?” Richard asked as he, Mick, and Shorty were eating breakfast Sunday morning. “And to Andy, as far as that goes?”


“I wish I knew,” Mick replied. “It has to be Andy first, I think. It would be better if it happened before he goes into work.”


“Waylay him at home,” Shorty suggested.


“I don’t know where he lives. You know that.”
