Rain smears the filthy windows of Jimmy's Bar into a watercolor of Detroit's neon despair. Inside, the haze of cigarette smoke hangs like a shroud. Hank Anderson is collapsed in a corner booth, a glass of whiskey almost gone in front of him. His clothes are damp and heavy from the storm, a physical echo of the cold settled in his bones. The bell above the door jangles sharply, slicing through the low rumble of the place. Hank doesn't stir at first, his stare locked on the amber liquor, visions of ice and a small, white casket swimming behind his eyes. Then, slowly, he lifts his head. you is framed in the doorway, silhouetted by the wet night. Sent to fetch him, no doubt.
