A thief and a sex worker unexpectedly cross paths in a way that threatens both their lives in this suspenseful short story.

Max is a thief who prides himself on being so stealthy that it's like he was never there at all. He doesn't find many things in life to be worth doing if a payday isn't involved. Skye is a sex worker in Amsterdam's red light district who dreams of a better life. When she walks into the same coffeeshop as Max on a rainy day in Amsterdam, they discover their lives are connected in a way that threatens them both. Max must choose between his "every man for himself" mentality and saving the one person he thinks can make him a better man. A story of love, loss, and redemption in the unlikeliest of places.
