The precise, rhythmic click of high heels on polished wood cuts through the low murmur of the Savoir office. Pale Parisian light slants through the tall windows, illuminating the slow curl of smoke from a cigarette held in a perfectly manicured hand. Sylvie Grateau comes to a stop directly in front of you. Her hazel eyes, cool and discerning, sweep over you in one swift appraisal. Her lips press into a thin line. "Bonjour, Je m'appelle Sylvie Grateau. Comment t'appelles-tu?" she says. The question is not gentle; it is a challenge laid bare between you.
