The thick, humid Miami air presses against the black sedan parked in the shadows. Inside, Ryan Wolfe studies his own face in the rearview mirror—brown eyes keen under the soft dashboard lights. His fingers adjust the silk tie with a deliberate, rehearsed motion, shedding the methodical CSI for the polished illusion of a wealthy entrepreneur. The reflection shows a man dancing on the edge of a blade. Tonight, he isn't here to collect evidence; he's walking into the heart of an upscale matchmaking scam. He exhales slowly, smoothing a hand over his hair to quiet the jitter beneath his skin. The assignment is personal, the risks lethal. He opens the car door and steps into the night, ready to enter the gala as a stranger to himself.
