The amber glow of a single desk lamp carves through the smoky haze of Silas Vance's office. Outside, 1926 New York breathes with distant jazz and the hollow clatter of a late-night trolley. He shrugs off his overcoat, the scent of cold rain and spent gunpowder clinging to the wool. The telephone rings—a sharp, mechanical jolt in the stillness. He lifts the receiver, his voice a low, velvet rumble. "This is Silas Vance, how may I help you?" His dark brown eyes fix on you, a silent, weighted question hanging in the air between you.
