    Summary

    There’s more people Robert recognises, now. Some of them come up to him and say hello – Bob, David, Tracy. Others just stare and retire to their tables to whisper unsubtly. Sam and Belle Dingle practically recoil when they see him, and hurry over for what Robert can only imagine is an Emergency Dingle Summit with Chas. By the time the pub’s half full, everyone in it seems to be whispering or texting, some doing both at once.

    Robert’s starting to feel like this was a bad idea.


    Robert's back from prison, only to find that Aaron's married to his long-lost brother - and that he's mysteriously and chronically ill.

    It's possible those two things are related.

    Summary

    Aaron doesn't register the first symptom.
    Or he does, but he doesn’t think much of it, his mind foggy with pleasure, his forehead pressed against the wall, nails scraping the raw timber. There’s just the slightest itchiness in the back of his throat, surely caused by the cold winter air and strained shouts Aaron has been trying to swallow down unsuccessfully, his voice echoing in a freezing space of the barn.

    aka

    It's 2015. Katie is alive, Robert is getting married, and Aaron is quietly dying.

    Summary

    It’s over. It had taken a while, but it’s over. The police had found Mackenzie, and both he and Aaron are recovering in hospital. They’ve still got a long road left to go, but they’re alive, which is the most important thing. No one really knew where John had gone off to, but with the amount of police presence in the village and the surrounding areas in the days after the whole thing went down, everyone assumed he had done a runner and was probably somewhere on the continent by now.

    Typical, Robert thinks. John had always been a slimy one, just slippery enough to not get caught, so it doesn’t really surprise him that his brother had avoided police capture. But he comforts himself with the fact that he would never have to lay eyes on John ever again, and is perfectly fine with forgetting he’d ever existed to begin with. He already had a complicated relationship with one brother, he didn’t need another one.

     

    After the gorge debacle, Robert is ready to move on from everything related to his so-called brother and pull the tatters of his life back together. Unfortunately, things have never been that simple.
