Half a Mind to Murder (Dr. Alexandra Gladstone Mysteries book 3)
“She had been up most of the night trying to soothe and comfort little Alice and to do what she could to control her cough. Although the baby slept very little during the night, by six she had fallen asleep from exhaustion. Alexandra once again removed the tube, knowing that the baby would be hungry and eager to suckle when she awoke.
Jim had slept soundly all through the night, and Kate had been able to get at least a little sleep and, Alexandra hoped, would be able to care for Alice during... the day. Alexandra planned to forgo her house calls and sleep a few hours before she opened her surgery.

Nancy appeared to be in a rather odd mood as she buzzed about the kitchen, and Alexandra quickly decided it was best that she not argue with her and, instead, at least to try to eat a little breakfast.MoreLess
