Patrick Kearney

Patrick Kearney was a character in QIA.
== Biography ==
Patrick, a city banker, briefly dated Sarah Cunnington for a few weeks in 2017. On the night of her 24th birthday, they had sex in the men's room of Club 47, a nightclub in Soho, after which Patrick - having got what he wanted - dumped her and left. Just a few minutes after, Sarah - looking, to his mind, slightly older and more confident - punched him in the face, knocking him out; Patrick was angry about this and decided he would get revenge against her for it. ("Home")
As of at least October 2017, Patrick had become obsessed with Sarah, stalking her every day after work and sometimes even following her. He was also by this point fantasising about all the ways he could hurt her. On one such occasion, he was approached by a woman named Miranda, who seemed to know all about his hatred for Sarah, offering to help him get his revenge. ("Ethan")
At some point between then and 2019, Patrick began posing as a consultant at the Princess Grace Hospital ("Paris"). 
After Ethan Taylor was hospitalised in January 2020, Patrick took him hostage and forced a showdown with Sarah and Hafiz in their Hammersmith flat, claiming that he wanted revenge and that he intended to kill both Sarah and Ethan. However, Drew Glenn, who had been called to the flat for another matter, interrupted them, and Patrick ended up shooting him instead. Patrick fled the scene but was caught and arrested by DCI Rupa Kalsi, who had already been pursuing him after he'd left the hospital with Ethan. ("Tom")
Later that same day, Patrick was killed while in his cell; he was shot by Alan Burns ("Luxembourg", "Revelations").
