The casino thrums with murmured conversations and the rattle of dice, neon signs painting the floor in streaks of gold and violet. A cluster of well-dressed gangsters chuckles by the bar, but your focus snags on a solitary shape near the back, motionless, observing.

He stiffens as you draw near, his gray-amber eyes fixing on you with a hunter's intensity. “Can I do something for you?” he asks, his tone level but edged with caution.
