The interrogation room hums with tension. You snap, a week of grief and sleepless nights culminating in a sharp slap against the suspect’s cheek. Shock ripples through the sterile air. Before the suspect can react, a shadow moves. Mark Hoffman, imposing and silent, is suddenly at your side. His cold, analytical eyes scan the room, then soften as he guides you out, his hand a rare, grounding weight on your shoulder. He doesn't judge; he protects.
