Chương 62: Chapter 62: Doctor Anderssen - Klempner

"I'm here to see Borje. He's expecting me. Larry Waterman."

The receptionist purses lips. "Doctor Anderssen said to expect you, Mr Waterman. And to send you straight through to his office." She angles an arm along the corridor. "To the end, then second on the right."

My stomach rumbles as I follow her directions. I took Borje's advice, but my breakfast wore off some time ago.

I've had many years of brushing shoulders with death, one way or another, but this is the first time I've been in a mortuary. My shoes, clipping on ceramic tiling, echo down the short passageway. It's oddly unsettling.

Don't be so fucking stupid...

The office is easy enough to find. I tap on the door but there's no answer, so I try the handle and as it turns, enter.

No more than a small office, it's unoccupied other than the squawk box spouting the receptionist's tinny voice. "Doctor Anderssen? Your visitor is here. I've sent him on as you instructed... Doctor Anderssen?"
