   Summary

   “It’s not that he won’t talk,” Dr. Karim says. “It’s that he can’t. His brain is trying to protect him.”

   But Eddie doesn’t feel protected. He feels trapped in his own skin, stuck in the space between panic and silence, where the words used to be.

   -

   Or: After a near-fatal drowning call hits too close to home, Eddie loses his voice and Buck stays by his side as they search for what’s left unsaid.
