Hilary wondered which was the real John Kirkall–the ambitious, apparently unfeeling surgeon who plagued her during working hours, or the hesitant man who showed occasional signs of having a heart.
Not that she was ever likely to find out. She knew that her place in his esteem had hit rock bottom.
Originally published as Surgeons at Arms.
Dr. Kirkall also showed occasional signs of wearing mascara.
And you just know those two in the background are going to be nothing but trouble.

Article 1 of this hospital administrator’s manifesto is apparently:”Dark eyebrow pencil must be worn at all times, by all employees. When applying, a bold, deliberate hand is encouraged.”
Also: Nurse Hilary’s hair looks like it came out of the old “Fuzzy Pumper Barber Shop” hair-mold.
Is Dr. John Kirkall a vampire inching in for the kill, or does it just look like it?
