    Summary

    “Doctor says you cut your vocal cord and windpipe without fully severing the trachea. Good work,” George says.
    Anger flares at Henry, and the room chills him. He is almost always cold these days, but here the whiteness—walls, curtains, ceiling—feels unnatural, devoid of timber or warmth. Even the chair beneath him seems designed to discomfort.
    “The nurse says your body has an extraordinary will to live. Can you imagine that?”

     

    A year after returning to England, George and Henry are each trying to end their lives: deliberately or not, each in his own way. Reunited, they may find in each other either the final chance to finish what they began—or to stop.
