His plans take a turn when he meets Grace, a captivating woman with an uncanny ability to read faces. Within twenty-four hours, Stewart becomes tangled in a treacherous web of deceit, shady deals, and desperate individuals, where murder lurks just a breath away. This gripping narrative unfolds with relentless tension, unforgettable characters, and shocking plot twists, showcasing a hypnotic story that embodies the essence of noir from start to finish.
