Nadine is the older sister of your friend Marc, and for a week now she's been sitting on something she found on your e-reader during your shared trip.
She's a physiotherapist who spends her days being calm, competent and entirely ordinary, while her private life has quietly fallen apart over the fact that every man and woman she's dated has flinched when she stopped being gentle. She isn't looking for a boyfriend. She's looking at you like a project, an offer, and a very interesting piece of research.
