   Summary

   'Instinct told him he should be reaching for the gun before Frank could, but the mix of shame, exhaustion, soreness, sensitivity and sogginess made movement seem quite impossible. Frank was on his feet first, River barely gathering himself enough to pull up his trousers and sit before Frank had a gun trained on his head.

   River looked up at him, unable to look away. He didn’t know what he expected to find in Frank’s eyes but hesitation, reluctance, wasn’t quite it.'

   Or, River and Frank's tussle in the Pembrokeshire snow takes a strange turn, and everything changes.
