This was another great chapter and I hope she finds the right color soon. I enjoyed this piece and we're all rooting for you in the chemo. I know it's rough so we'll understand when you don't feel well enough to post something.

    I am one of those women who worry about letting people down. I am afraid if I don't post, I will let my readers down. Thank you for the review and the encouragement.

I talked to a "gypsy" friend of mine the other day. (They are RVers.) She had cancer and went through chemo. She just celebrated her tenth anniversary of being cancer free.

What is 'suicide by cop'? Also, why is GEORGE capitalized? Oops, sounds like I'm criticizing. Obviously, my rating proves I'm not. I love your style. Me questions are elementary. Dan :))

    Suicide my cop is when a person would rather die than go to jail or be questioned. It happens often. My husband was a CID agent in the military.

Hi Barbara :)

Good work on this chapter. Nice dialogue exchanges and good pacing.

Excellent sequence with the bloody shirt and Joe's reactions.

I still have trouble with the "painting" but I guess it's the only way Sara has to cope with the crisis.

Good luck with your therapy.

Your story was very enjoyable and I can't wait until I have time to read more. I know I will be wondering later, as I lie in bed, do they find Cassie? I have found over the years that it takes a great writer to haunt me until I've finished the story and sometimes for days after. You have done this, so I have to add you to my list of great writers.

Good luck with the chemo. I'll say a blessing for you.

Hi Barbara, This is a good chapter. I hope they hurry up and find Cassia but I like how you are drawing out the suspense. I'll be praying for you when you go for Chemo. Warm regards, Donna

Hi Barbara - this was an excellent continuation of your marvelous story. You get me engaged so easily and naturally when you write. You are truly gifted.
You are on my prayer list at church, but you'll get a personal one on Thursday. Warm regards, Bill

I like the realism in your story and the personalities you have created for both Joe and Sara. This was an interesting chapter. The disappearance of Cassie shows in the strain on the relationship between Joe and Sara. Good job of writing. You will be in my thoughts and prayers this coming Thursday. Keep your chin up. I know you are strong and are going to come through all of this with flying colors. God bless.

You did a good job with this. You set the tension level well and displayed that through your characters. You can feel their stress and worry.
