Ruffled Feathers

When "Queasy" Morgan, a shady nightclub owner, tries to put the screws on an old people's home, he gets a lot more than he bargained for. Helped by Charlie and Tiny, two of his henchmen with misgivings, the residents retaliate. But Morgan's problems don't end there. When his parrot falls ill - he blames the residents - he's forced to travel overland to the central African republic of Madoqualand for a cure. En route he almost causes a diplomatic incident in Paris, risks a charge of indecent exposure in Turkey, and struggles with a water phobia. To cap it all, an over-sexed game ranger gets the hots for the poor man when he arrives at her isolated ranger station. Zany and fast moving, RUFFLED FEATHERS presents an alternative snapshot of residential care in the 21st century. But will Morgan return home safely? And what does his parrot think about it all?
