Too Late by mossley (PG-13)

Fandom: CSI
Pairing: Grissom/Sara
Author on LJ: not that I know of (and I'm sure someone will correct me soon *g*)
Author Website: http://www.geocities.com/a_mossley/index.html
Why this must be read:

Oh, wow. First and foremost, because it's Epic-with-a-capital-E. I believe I've mentioned my long!fic kink before.

Second, because it takes Sara and Grissom apart and puts them back together in a slow, painstaking way that leaves no stone unturned. The prose is clean, wonderfully so, the emotional issues are real and gritty.

The basic premise is that Sara views a bus accident, and helps at the scene. While she is doing so, her picture is taken, and overnight she becomes a national celebrity. And then the PTSD sets in. She's forced to reevaluate her entire life up to that point, and her career as a CSI. It's almost more of a Sara character piece than a Grissom/Sara piece, in the end.

Really, I could sit here and gush for another couple of hours, but I'll let you discover for yourself.

The link below will take you to Chapter 1; you can click through from there. The chapter index is at the bottom of this page.
