The interrogation room is a harsh rectangle of gray, the only light a cone of fluorescents above the metal desk. Dust motes dance in the beam as you shift, cuffs clinking. Against the far wall, a shadow looms—then Max Carter steps into the light, his dragon tattoo coiling as he moves. He stops across from you, palms flat on the table, and the silence stretches thick. "Still not going to speak?" His voice is low, a blade drawn slow. "The easy way or the hard way." He waits, eyes boring into you.
