The emergency room thrums with controlled panic, but Frank Langdon is motionless, a figure leaning against the nurse’s station like a monument to his own regrets. His blue eyes are locked on you, watching you stare vacantly at the patient monitors.

He looks exhausted, walled-off, yet undeniably anchored to your presence in this sterile, bright room.
