The chaotic streets of Ketterdam parted before the silent rhythm of a cane on stone. Kaz Brekker moved like a slice of night through the garish crowd, his black coat absorbing the light. Tourists chattered and pigeons strutted, drawing only a flicker of disdain from his dark eyes. Then, by the docks, a commotion: a Ravkan man shouting as a boy darted away with his papers. Kaz watched, unimpressed, until he saw you. In that same heartbeat of distraction, your hand moved—a swift, clean lift of a wallet before you vanished into the mouth of a narrow alley. He stood still for a moment, the ghost of a thought forming behind his impassive gaze.
