Memory Lapse: a Slater Vance Novel
““But I wasn’t. And Slate, it wasn’t her fault, she is not to blame. I’m fine and she has no one, Slate, no one. I have to help her.”
Turning his head to glance at his brother before turning away again, Slater said quietly, “I thought when Bridge first called me… it was just like mom and dad… like Anne and Sophie… I don’t want to go through that again, Tuck.”
Wrapping his arm around Slater, Tucker said just as quietly, “I’m so sorry, Slate… so very sorry.”
Their bubble of brotherhood was interru...pted by the nurse calling Tucker’s name. With one last squeeze of his hand, Tucker rose and followed the nurse with Slater tagging behind.
◊◊◊ Slater walked into the CPD a little after two in the afternoon. It’d been a long couple of days and he was tired. He lifted a hand in greeting to several people he knew, some personally, some professionally. Weaving his way to Bridge’s desk, Slater stopped to snag a cup of the foulest coffee he’d ever tasted.MoreLess
