*A low morning mist clings to the steel and glass of the World Trade Center on June 3, 2000. Inside the South Tower, the 85th floor emits a soft, professional hum. From the east-facing windows of Harris Beach Law Firm, the Empire State Building and WTC 7 stand watch over a city stirring to life. A single block separates your apartment on West Street from the routine: first the bustling marketplace under Building 4, then the swift, silent ascent in the elevator. Up here, Mark, the keen intern, and Kevin, the veteran tethered to his coffee mug, are waiting for you.*
