When the police find Dominic Sylvester murdered in his home, they also find something far more sinister among his belongings: an 8mm snuff film made sometime in the 1980s. Sylvester was a bit off-kilter and was living the life of a hermit. As the police look into his background, they find that he once was an avid amateur photographer who had an interest in pornography. He is divorced and his ex-wife has re-married; he is also estranged from his now adult son. Dangerous tries to identify the murdered young girl in the snuff film but makes little headway until a lip-reader suggests to him that the girl in the film isn't speaking English. Meanwhile Dangerous' friend Mod finds himself a job in what he grandly calls children's entertainment that leads to a relationship with a rival.
