She was methodical, patient, and possessed of the particular stubbornness that cold case work demands — the willingness to sit with a question for years until it answers itself.

The neurological ward at 3 AM is a specific kind of quiet. Machines, the occasional call, the particular sound of a building full of people between states of consciousness. Nurse Rachel Addo has worked that ward for eleven years. She has seen patients in many unusual states. She has never filed a report like the one she filed on the morning of October 22nd, 2022.
