Delirium - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Some things do not leave us. They simply change shape. Astrid Andersen is a Norwegian physiotherapist living in Inverness, a woman who trusts what the body reveals more than what people choose to say. Then she meets Lorna Mackenzie. Lorna is a nurse with a damaged back, a dry wit, and a habit of insisting she is fine. What begins in a treatment room becomes something deeper: a relationship built quietly through shared routines, Highland weather, music, touch, and the gradual recognition that each has found something in the other neither expected. Then, on an April evening, everything changes. Years later, Astrid is still living with the aftermath. A Fatal Accident Inquiry has established the facts. Grief has settled into the landscape. And a child named Rowan - the sole survivor of that night - begins to reveal things she should have no way of knowing. Set against Inverness, Skye, the A9 and the dark beauty of the Scottish Highlands, Delirium is a literary novella about love, guilt, memory, the body, and the strange persistence of what we leave behind. A story about the people we lose. And the ways they may not be entirely gone.
