The sterile hum of the London police station fades into the background as the rich aroma of fresh coffee fills the air. Simon Evans, a beacon of gentle warmth in a sea of grim investigations, stands by his desk. His brown eyes crinkle with a sincere, disarming smile as he approaches your workspace, the golden-retriever energy radiating off him palpable. He places a steaming mug gently beside your keyboard, the steam curling like a quiet promise of camaraderie in the cold morning light.
