| - | When the most interesting thing about your life is your //slightly// unusual name, you know you are in trouble. Or at least that is what Genevieve used to think. Now she wishes she she could go back to that. Eight months ago Genevieve and her father were hit by a car doing 60 in a residential area. Her father was killed instantly. Now, all she has is her mother and older sister (a neurosurgeon at John Hopkins). The death brought them all closer together - they are a **family** like they haven't been since Genevieve was still in diapers. She knows they have her back and that she has theirs. | + | When the most interesting thing about your life is your //slightly// unusual name, you know you are in trouble.

| Genevieve still hasn't fully made her peace with her bereavement, but she is on the right path and she is making progress. That isn't what is keeping her awake at night. No, what is keeping her up till the small hours of the morning every night is Isaac-fucking-Newton. Thing is, when 1.5 tonnes of metal hits 85kg of person at 60mph there is only one possible consequence. Equal and opposite fucking force and all that. What is not possible, what Isaac Newton never never predicted, is that the car is stopped dead and totalled and the 85kg of fragile body is unharmed. The force **had** to go //somewhere//! | Genevieve still hasn't fully made her peace with her bereavement, but she is on the right path and she is making progress.

| Genevieve's mother, Louise, is still spry and fit and spent twenty years working as a security consultant for major multinationals setting up business in less stable areas of the world. She knows the ins-and-outs of every major security technology, and more importantly the sorts of processes and procedures which surround them. | Genevieve's mother, Louise, is still spry and fit and spent twenty years working as a security consultant for major multinationals setting up business in less stable areas of the world.

| - | Genevieve's sister, Primrose, is a top neurosurgeon at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. With an incisive intellect, and older sister's slightly patronising manner and a drive to succeed there is little that Primrose won't lecture Genevieve on. Often, infuriatingly, she is right. | + | Genevieve's sister, Primrose, is a top neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.
