    Summary

    Cook’s symptoms, apart from the aforementioned cardiac concerns and other assorted degenerations, included a sort of buzzing in the chest, and an ache in the jaw not at all like the one in his guts. A restlessness, a neediness. As his steadfastness had so far been a balm to the other men's maladies, he did not like to discuss these symptoms among them.

    But Amundsen wasn't the other men.

    Irreplicable cures for the indefinable maladies of the long polar night.

    It has been all in all three weeks since a pale-faced Francis bundled James’s unresponsive, catatonic form into a carriage and spirited James away from London to the countryside. Now James is by the water but still a stranger to himself.

    He hates how beautiful this house and their little garden are because he knows that he could have been happy here, and isn’t.
