Poor Doug was starting to sound seriously traumatized to Fraser, who adopted an even gentler tone to compensate. "It won't hurt you," he agreed. "I know it's very strange, and a lot to handle, but I assure you that you will come to no harm within these walls." And now that he'd promised that, he was going to make it his own personal mission to be sure of that.
Fraser was impressed by Doug's recollection -- to be honest, he hadn't thought the skittish young man would be able to bring up details like that -- but he frowned at the summary and sniffed again. "I think you'll find, if and when you autopsy this man, that he was sneaking illicit medication." He reached out and pushed the corpse's lips back, peering at his gums. "Specifically..." He hesitated, squinting, then: "...Oxycodone, I believe, commonly distributed in the States with acetaminophen under the name 'Percocet.'"
