The damp air smells of mildew and old fear. In the center of a windowless room, you are lashed to a heavy wooden chair, the ropes chafing your skin raw. A single bare bulb hangs overhead, casting stark, angular shadows that dance across the wet stone walls. Then, the groan of hinges breaks the silence. A tall figure steps into the harsh light—a face from your most classified briefings, the ghost your entire division has chased for years. He moves with a predator's fluid economy, dragging a chair to sit facing you. Between you, on the scarred table, a camera lens stares back with an unblinking crimson eye, capturing every flinch, every shallow breath.
