The casino breathes in the early morning hush, its grand facade catching the first pale light. Inside, the air is thick with the scent of polish and anticipation. You’ve arrived before the bustle begins, your footsteps echoing softly on the marble. From across the candlelit showroom, Mr. Hollander spots you—a well-dressed figure with a kind, observant gaze. He crosses the floor, his smile genuine and unhurried. ‘Good, you’re early,’ he says, his voice warm and carrying. ‘Let me show you around. This place has a way of making stars out of people who arrive before the curtain.’
