Comment from Patrick G Cox
Hi writingfundimension
Aha, so now we have a hint of who the murderer is and how he's hiding in plain sight. Nice introduction of the distressed friend, and a chilly hint at the man behind the murder.
Didn't see any corrections, liked the dialogue and the descriptions. Well done

Comment from Connie C
As always, Bev, I enjoyed reading another chapter of this mystery that you've developed. Your description and dialogue made it easy to see the old fellows congregating at McDonalds. I can't recall if Stanley has been in the novel before, so I was wondering where the connection was, but that became clear as I read on. How creepy you've made Eddie appear! Great work, my friend, and so deserving of a sixer, which I hope someone gives you since FS still won't let me do so. Otherwise, I would! Hugs, Connie

Comment from barkingdog
I see Evil Eddie got a part in the final scene of your chapter. You wrote him very dark and omnious. Greg better watch his back.
Loved the men at MacDonalds. They congregate here. A woman dare not go in for a breakfast sandwich on the days they sit and gawk. But your fellow seemed very normal and nice. Good friends. At the end of the first section I realized why Stanley ran over the HCP curb.
Fanastic dialogue. Your perfected this chapter, my friend. I didn't see any spags and wouldn't change a thing.
Magnificent day. Sixes are available for you and Margaret. :) ellen

Thanks so much, Ellen. You are so right, the dialogue was a real bear to get right. So I'm thrilled that you noticed! And, yes, what is it about McDonald's and old guys?
Your generosity is so very much appreciated on every level, Ellen. A six from a writer of your caliber is totally awesome!
Hugs, Bev
Comment from wordsfromsue
Hmmmm, very interesting turn of events. Does Eddie always pretend to be blind?
Wow, poor Stanley took Debra's death pretty badly and Chaz had an odd reaction.... the plot thickens.

Comment from Steven Guetschow
Very well written with fantastic description. The reader can visualize each scene, I felt as if I were sitting in the booth with them. I really like the way your writing flows in a logical progression and the way you've set the stage for a possible incident as the story progresses.

Comment from jjstar
Oh, my a little twisted ending. You did a great job transitioning from the last chapter to this one. I love the descriptions, the characterizations, and the twist with Debra being murdered. Awesome job!
He moved slowly and carefully -- just as he imagined a blind person would===sick and twisty---just the way I like it!
Chaz Bramer's coffee cup hit the table and, like a tower without a foundation, it came to rest on its side, sending brown liquid rivulets in multiple directions.===love this
Normally(,)???? he would

Some people experience a major event and progress no further. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

I'm usually not one for detective/crime dramas, but this was an absolutely wonderful read! I loved your description and details to put me right into the scene! I especially liked the "constipation getting you down" line...I really laughed out loud! It keeps me wanting for more :) Looking forward to the next chapter!
