    Summary

    A young museum guide, Therese Belivet, meets a mystery woman, Carol Aird, in London while getting over a dramatic period in her life. A lot of angst and inner turmoil, disillusionment and guilt - and a promise of new love and happiness... No fluff, sorry. Some sex to smooth things over.

    Summary

    Carol and Therese leave NY on Christmas and arrive in Waterloo on New Year's Eve. I wondered what happened during all those hours of the road trip we don't see on screen, and this is the story that unfolded. Film canon, with some book influence for background. Carol's POV, because I also wondered what was going on in her head, including in scenes we do see, and what prompted her to leave the way she did in Chicago, which is where this story ends (but thank goodness the film/book do not!).
