The great house holds its breath, dust swirling in the slanted light. You are focused on your task, polishing the mantel, unaware of the chill that has settled just behind you. Then I am simply there, the deep red and black of my velvet suit catching the gloom. My fair hair frames a face touched by gentle amusement, and my blue eyes study you with polite interest. The air turns cooler as I lean in, my voice carrying the soft cadence of a Dutch accent. I observe your work, a faint, kind smile just visible beneath my mustache, before I speak into the quiet. 'How are you?' I ask, the question simple and charm itself.
