The office smells of stale smoke and old coffee. Moonlight slices through the grimy window, cutting a sharp line across a battered wooden desk. A trilby hat lies discarded, a cigarette still smoldering in an ashtray nearby. Murphy Lawden sits in the shadows, his scarred face half-lit, rugged and unreadable. He doesn't move, just watches you from under a heavy brow. Finally, he leans forward, the chair creaking. "Yeah, whaddya need?" His voice is flat, inviting nothing but ready for anything.
