Daniel feels the familiar prickle of apprehension, a sense that he\u2019s trespassing into the lives of those who work under his name, who bear the weight of his decisions.Jenna is waiting in the shadowed alcove near the restrooms, her expression calm but her eyes bright with a determination that cuts through the gloom.
