Why this must be read: - Blair is shot and seriously injured by an armed robber; eight months later, Jim takes a still-recovering Blair to England for a holiday. There, they become friendly with Craig Gilmore from the local police training school.
Some stories are so action-oriented that a reader is rushed along, totally breathless, without getting any chance to appreciate just what's happening. Not so with this one. It's a nice balanced mixture of gentle action with character interaction which makes for good, varied pacing. Although I'm a Brit, I'd never watched The Bill (a police series set in London) so I knew nothing about Craig Gilmore and Luke Ashton, but it's very easy to think of them as OCs.
Although it was written a while ago and posted to a list for The Bill, it was only recently posted to AO3 and listed for The Sentinel, and it's our gain that it is.
