Part & Parcel
A Sidewinder Story
by Abigail Roux
About Part & Parcel:
Nick O'Flaherty and Kelly Abbott had their happy ending in
sight when a friend’s call for help almost ended with them losing it to the
blade of a knife. Now, in the aftermath of near-disaster, both men are trying
to heal and move on.
Moving on together, though, is harder than either of them
realized it would be. Kelly struggles with simply being a lover instead of the
Doc, while Nick is mired in his recovery. The distance between them inches
along in stilted silence.
Desperately seeking solace, Nick finally gathers the courage
to sort through the possessions his dear friend and fellow Sidewinder teammate
Elias Sanchez left him when he died. Instead of comforting memories, Nick and
Kelly find a stack of letters and strict instructions from Eli that prompt them
to send out a call for assistance. With Eli’s letters in hand, Sidewinder sets
out on one last mission together, seeking peace and absolution from beyond the
grave—and from each other.
