Why this must be read: because this is a complex and clever piece of writing that pulls you and doesn’t let go. Told from Gene’s POV this explores his view of Sam, the events of the series, their relationship, and the growing, uneasy, feeling he has that Sam is not real. Original, intriguing, absorbing and utterly compelling. The author warns for some rough and kink-heavy smut.
Excerpt
The first time Gene stepped foot in Sam Tyler’s flat, he had felt the world shift beneath his feet with a sense of revelation so shattering that he doubted he ever truly recovered. And that was only partly due to the sight of his DI cuffed to his bed, spread out utterly naked, not a stitch of clothing in sight.
And he had so little clothing at that, once Gene found the chance to investigate. Six shirts. Two pairs of trousers – the black folded into the wardrobe, the red strewn across the floor, tangled with a pair of white y-fronts that Gene was very deliberately not looking at in favour of glaring into the wardrobe. Six shirts.
While Gene’s sole acquaintance with the type of people who come from Hyde consisted of that pointy-nosed bird his mate Jonesy had married after their time with National Service, he didn’t mind reading Tyler as a consistent type of Hyde bloke. He was quaint, ridiculously picky, strutted about with a persistent smell of cleanliness wafting from his hair and skin, a fresh soapy smell that made Gene’s nostrils twitch in a way that wasn’t entirely disgusted, just curious.
A man shouldn’t smell so clean unless he’s been living half his life in the shower, which seemed a ridiculous notion before but now that Tyler had been locked away in his tiny bathroom for the last twenty minutes, Gene was starting to have second thoughts. Daft bugger hadn’t even thanked him when Gene had finally unlocked the cuffs, just shot upright and disappeared into the bathroom, leaving Gene alone to wait with only the flat’s sparse contents and a rampant imagination for company.
