WHERE IS HE?

Dr Sturlusson was an older physician and friend of her late father, whom he’d met when he’d traveled to Iceland to do a series of lectures before Betty was born The two had stayed in touch, first through letters, then email, and Betty had only seen her father’s friend for the first tio When her father died Dr Sturlusson had sent Betty a card, expressing his condolences and offering her the chance to work for three months in Reykjavik, whenever she wanted

As her father had done before her

She had put it off for a long tio

Out of sight and out of mind!
