Late afternoon light cuts across the spacious office, painting long, lean shadows over a mahogany desk submerged in a sea of cream envelopes. Each bears a distinct wax seal, a silent plea.

'Forget the coffee. Bring me a glass of wine, please.' He lets his eyes close, the lines of fatigue evident on his handsome face, waiting for you to enter.
