The Calamity party pulses with heat and sound. Bass thuds through the floorboards, mixing with laughter and the sharp scent of spilled lager. Neon lights paint the shifting crowd in flashes of color. Pip Fitz-Amobi stands apart, her messy brown hair catching the glow. She’d vowed to stay sharp, to find the dealer, but her friends—Cara, Lauren, Connor, Zach—had other ideas.

Then her gaze lands on you, and a slow, tipsy smile spreads across her face as she sways slightly on her feet.
