Cat and mouse and mouse and cat--my head is spinning. I am astounded that they planned for Allie to know it wasn't Jaz--I assume it's to prolong the torment.

Cheryl edged away [for=>FROM] Charles in case he might hug her again. I intend to see how smart she really is PERIOD

Cheryl squealed and recoiled [OMIT away].

    Thanks so much. Liz. Writing keeps me sane, but it doesn't stop me from making stupid errors. My brain isn't focusing as it should. The rocky road turned into something much worse again. I apologize for my sloppiness.

    I thank you for reading and bearing with me as I try to mend the mistakes.... I appreciate it very much.

    Always, Carol

Who can we trust . . . or should I say, can we trust anyone? But it sure makes the story interesting. LOL. I hope all is well in your world! Thanks for sharing.

Wow! There are so many people trying to play tricks on others in this chapter. Intriguing! Note: Marian's name is spelled sometimes with an o and some with an a. Also: He expected Cheryl to continue, but (she) appeared enthralled.... I hesitate to think what might be planned for Allie.
Blessings. Carol

    I understand your stress. I don't consider it sloppiness. We can proofread and we don't see things because our brains read them correctly. So sorry for your rocky road. Praying for you & your family. Carol

You really need to get us good an confused before you start make it all come together. I think Vito is going by the name of James and he seems to be married to Marian who doesn't really have dementia but is pretenting to. The little darling in the red room must be Jaz who apparently was given something a little stronger than melatonin. The tatoo on the dead girl seems to have deliberately done wrong so Allie would know the difference but why kill someone and go to all that trouble to make her believe her sister was dead if she was supposed to realize she wasn't. Like I say, I'm bit confused at this point.

    Sorry, Beth... It is a complicated plan. I'll try to help.... When released from prison, Vito assumed James's identity and the film studio, believing that Marion had dementia and would not know it wasn't her dead husband. He staged the video and killed Angel, so Allie would think her sister was shot or dead and come to Savannah, Georgia. Once he has her there, he wants to play Clue or Cat and a Mouse game toying with her until he reaches his final plan. Of course, Charles (his buddy) is in on it as well. The fake tattoo was so Allie would not mistake the burnt body.... Vito wanted her to witness the terror of seeing her sister dead, not once, but twice. It was emotionally gruesome and painful regardless of who the woman was, but now she knows it isn't Jaz, and she will search.

    I didn't mean for you to have to go to all that trouble to explain. I've had things on my mind lately with my son's wedding coming up Sunday so I've probably missed some things. That clears everything up. Don't pay attention to my questions? I don't mean for you to write me personally. I know it will all clear up for me before it is over.

    Just knowing that someone cares about the story and is trying to follow it makes me happy so don't worry yourself a bit. Life is on the downhill slope again and I have been unintentionally sloppy. I need to get my act together.

    I hope you have a wonderful wedding and all of you enjoy the blessed day.

    Smiles and hugs, Carol

You delight and amaze with all the interlocking pieces of this literary puzzle! I'm barely able to catch my breath regarding Allie viewing what wasn't Jaz's body and here we are-- Overdoses! Pseudo-dementia maybe? Double/triple crosses.

So James wanted the tattoo to reveal that body wasn't Jaz? Oh you dastardly plotter you! I can hardly wait for the next chapter...

Just two things I noticed... (Thank GOD I'm not the only one to slip up!)--

---
Marion or Marian? (smile)

"Charles' eyes darted toward James. "Maybe we should ask>> Lady Marian<< before we get too excited."

"Oh, she'll jump at the chance." Cheryl edged away for Charles in case he might hug her again. "You know how much she loves to act."

"Great idea, Cheryl. Hurry and ask >>Marion<<." James stared at Charles. "Please shut the door. I want a word with you before you go."
-----

"he now>> choices<< the role I play and gives me the scripts---Chooses?
------

I'd give it a six if I had one...You know me. It's Thursday and my budget is busted!

Carry on. Your fans await!

I really enjoyed this chapter. I think I like it best, so far. I don't like Charles or James and I like it that Cheryl and Marian are pulling the wool over their eyes. I can't wait to find out who Cheryl called to tell them the 'game had begun." Excellent!

Oh! Lady Marian is not all she seemed to Vito and Charles. Does she know that Vito is playing "James" ? I guess you will unravel it all for us. I like it! Hope she is in touch with the criminal investigation team!

he now choices the role I play and gives me the scripts. (chooses)

The plot thickens, what an interesting group of characters we have here. Seems like double cross, maybe even triple cross, It will be interesting to see who is left standing at the end. There maybe a typo in the line "Charles Wailed"...do you need the be? Good Job.

They are a charming bunch of people who get their fun from being mean to one another, judt normal folk. It seems like Marian is not quite as dimeter as she appears. And now the sleeping tablets have been administered, or have taken by the actress and now cunning old Marian is playing the part of....well done Carol, blessings Roy
Typo : he now (choices) the role. Chooses?
