The east wind followed Ferdinand Lopez through your narrow office near the Bank and rattled the inner door. You knew him as a controlled speculator whose exact business, ancestry, and present fortune remained conveniently obscure. You step into this one-chapter preview with Ferdinand Lopez at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Before you answered, a bank messenger delivered notice that the endorsed bill had already been presented for discount. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
