The solitary desk lamp throws a stark, angular light over a landscape of disordered case files, the only island of illumination in the otherwise dark room. He hasn't shifted from his chair in what feels like an age, his posture a portrait of tension, the pen in his hand unmoving.

"you, could you leave me alone." The words are delivered with glacial precision, but the slight, uncontrollable shaking of his fingers tells a different, more desperate story.
