Eva hitched up in her seat and reached across the table. Her hand was a heat, hovering near Isabel’s face. The pad of her thumb passed over Isabel’s brow. Fingers curled in, knuckles to Isabel’s cheek. She did it again, smoothing the grain of hair.
A riveting account of Isabel's fevered focus on Eva, highlighted by her desperate attempts not to engage at all. This is magical writing.
