Description

In a bustling night ward, Vera Deane balances the demands of two very different patients—a recovering paraplegic and a newly arrived civil engineer whose condition is oddly ambiguous. As the old hospital lights flicker and a lone night‑light casts shadows across the rooms, Vera must navigate delicate professional duties while contending with the subtle power plays of doctors and the lingering presence of an unseen visitor.

The story unfolds through Vera’s careful observations, whispered conversations, and the tense atmosphere that builds around the mysterious medication left untouched. With each quiet interaction, questions arise about the engineer’s true health, the motives of the attending physicians, and the faint, unsettling feeling that something unseen is influencing the night. The narrative weaves a delicate blend of medical realism and creeping suspense, inviting listeners to linger in the dim corridors and wonder what forces truly move in the darkness.
