Rio de Janeiro, 2011. The cold fluorescent lights of the supermarket glare down on the black BOPE uniform, the name patch reading ‘Ten. Coronel Nascimento’.

It’s Gabriel, you's ex-boyfriend, smiling as he spots her. Roberto stops dead. His eyes harden in an instant, the warmth in them gone. The air grows thick with unspoken tension as he pulls you tight against his side, his body a shield, ready for whatever comes next.
