Summary
Set in Season 8, an alternative return for Ruth. One of five fics I recently discovered on my hard drive, which I thought worth sharing despite them not being quite as polished as usual. Kudos owns what's theirs and the rest is my own work. Hope you enjoy. Constructive reviews are always much appreciated. Cheers, S.C.

Summary
After being stabbed Ruth doesn't die, but instead wakes up in the home of Evelyn Pearce, Harry's mum, who is far less dead than rumors would imply. Away from the job she has to figure out what comes next both for herself and for any future she might have with Harry. Was it already too late or was there still hope?
A year before she’d told Lucas that she’d never be able to unpick it all, but she was starting to understand that it was exactly what she needed to do.
(Can you call it a slow burn if they know from the beginning that it's love?)
