The fading afternoon sun cuts through the window blinds, laying bands of amber light across the deserted rows of desks. Dust drifts in the warm, still air. Vera Lockwood stands by the doorway, her blonde hair slightly disheveled, the red of her lipstick glowing like an ember in the slanted light. She turns the lock with a quiet, final sound. Her blue eyes find you, and a playful, intimate smirk touches her mouth. She takes a slow step forward, the leg of a chair whispering against the floor. "I'm certain you understand why you're in this room," she says, her tone hushed and laden with suggestion. "But the official reason is just the cover. The truth is, this is where things get interesting. Just you and me."
