Summary
Re·ver·ie (noun)
A state of being pleasantly lost in one’s thoughts or dreams;
or a tranquil escape that becomes a dangerous dissociation.Dennis has always known exactly who he is in the ED: capable, warm, and certain of his place within the noise. The department is rhythm and purpose and something close to home.
But when a patient’s attention lingers too long, Dennis discovers that the mind has ways of surviving what the body cannot endure. What returns to the hospital isn’t the same bright resident who left, and the place that once felt steady no longer fits the same way.
