   Summary

   One night off from your career as an officer of the law can't be too adventurous, right? Once a week, you perform songs for funsies at a friend's bar, never expecting anything in return. Until one night, you're informed that the most dangerous man in the city of Brooklyn wants you in his sights, mafia lord, Bucky Barnes wants to see you. Being an officer of the law, you find this opportunity to be a silver plate, getting close to Barnes, finding out his dirty secrets, and getting close to his inner circle. You never expected to get in serious trouble with him. You're an amazing actress, or so you thought. What will happen to you if he finds out about your double life?
