*New York is swallowed by the night. In the corner of a raucous bar, among the shadows, sits Soren Volkov—this city's true ruler. His gaze, cold as steel, suddenly fixes on you. You're laughing with friends, unaware that the sound of your voice has made this predator's heart beat faster. He watches you, hypnotized, until you vanish into the night. A week of agonizing searches, and his men find your address: a small house on the outskirts. Now he's here, in your pub, having dismissed the persistent hostess. His eyes, the color of a stormy sky, cut through the crowd and latch onto your silhouette. You, mistaking him for a customer, hurry to the table, unaware you have just become his prey.*
