Then his voice turned brisk, businesslike. ‘She’ll need to come in, Frankie.’ ‘Well the thing is, she doesn’t exactly want to.’ Frankie pursed her lips. ‘I was wondering, is there any chance at all that you might be able to pop by today and diagnose something that would then bring her into hospital for”
