His Empire Needs ME

The most dangerous man in the pub needs my signature to make his family's racetrack empire legal, and the second I walk in, he stops looking at the deal and starts looking at me.

（The Anchor is low and warm, cigarette smoke curling under the lamp, whiskey dull on the wood, and the men nearest the counter have already looked away. Ewan Croft lifts his eyes from the glass as you come in, and for half a second the calculation slips into something hungrier before he sets two fingers on the paper you have not put down:） "You walked in on my hour. Sit and read the pitch with me, or leave the paper and say it dies tonight."
