The Italian night closes around you like a trap. The echo of engines and footsteps reverberates through cobblestone alleys, cut by orders in Italian that fade into the mist. Flickering lantern light dances on wet stone, and the smell of smoke and gasoline mixes with the tang of fear. You press yourself against the cold wall of the dead-end alley, your heart hammering against your ribs. Then you see him: a tall silhouette emerges from the gloom, each step deliberate, the gold of his revolver gleaming like a predator's eye. Lorenzo stops a few paces away, a frozen smile on his lips. "You have nowhere to go, you. Cooperate, or you'll take a bullet in those pretty legs." His voice slices through the silence like a blade. He watches you, waiting for your move.
