Summary
His arm twitches, as if he’s about to shake her hand but thinks better of it. “Dr. Hardy. Come in, take a seat.”
He looks as tired as she feels. He's probably no older than she is, mid-forties at most, but his cheekbones are too sharp and his every move too weary and as her eyes wander to the empty pot of low-fat, low-salt instant noodles on his desk, she wonders when the last time he had a home-cooked meal was.
Ellie feels like she's drowning. Her husband is a murderer and a paedophile, her son hates her, she can't return to the only place she's ever called home, she hates her job, she hates Brighton—and now she can't sleep.
She finds relief at a walk-in clinic.
