I can hardly wait for the story to be told. Your characters have always been interesting and yet they remain just a bit mysterious. Very well written to keep the interest going.

So there's an underground passage as well as a ghost. Bet I know where the "treasure" is hidden. :) Good dialect, Barbara. :) Nancy

Good chapter, barb. I must admit I'm not a fan of dialect. I avoid it like the plague and seldom read anything with more than a couple of lines of it. This is well done, though. Not so much as to overwhelm.

I think you handled the dialogue really well, interspersing it with action. I think your writing is getting stronger- more confidant. I liked it.

Wonderful read. The dialog for the character Amos so well written, very believable. I am from South Louisiana, many of us still speaks this way. I loved Part 2 of Chapter 17. Excellent job.

I love any story that takes place around food! Very nice furthering of the mystery, here, Barbara. Amos is man enough to admit there's ghosts, lets hope he rubs off on the other two!

Warm regards, Bev

I am hoping so too. I was going to be finished with Amos after Cash and Billy Joe leave, but I like him so much I think I had better fit him in. Thank you for the kind review.

Hey, I vote for that notion! You're very welcome, barbara.

I just loved this chapter, Barbara - you had me there with the two old chaps - and dat there pie sure looks good! And they never offered me a slice.

I so enjoy the American pie, which I confess to having many
a slice on our travels in the U.S.A. And since we will be over in Texas come April, to our eldest grand-daughter's wedding to a Texan, I dare say I'll forget my good intentions and have a few slices more.



Most enjoyable chapter, my friend.

Margaret

What part of TX? Texas is huge but maybe we will be close. Thank you for the kind review.

reply by Margaret Snowdon on 20-Jan-2014

We are landing in Austin - but the wedding is in Log Cove - Burnet - not too far away - afterwards, we are going to travel around for the rest of the time - we've been in and out of Tx so many times, but thought, since the air fare is so expensive, we might as well take advantage and stay a while. Colin wanted a month, but I don't want to be away more than a fortnight, as my sister is in her 80's and alone and she means the world to me. M

We have driven through Burnet a few times. I'm in Copperas Cove.

reply by Margaret Snowdon on 20-Jan-2014

I'll have to look that up on the map. We are only staying the two nights in one of the cabins in Log Cove as the prices are ridiculous - and then moving on - most likely use the Best Westerns Motels - there are always plenty of decent motels in the Stares to choose from. M

You know, this is a darn good chapter. I just love these two old men and their peach pie. Doesn't Dog even get a crumb. Now that ain't nice. I have grown into this story and amongst your tales, it is one of my favourites. Good going, Barbie. I hope I get my book on the go before long. Well done. luv jada

Great chapter my friend.

This is a nice story and I am sure the rest of it will be just as exciting. They certainly do like their peach pie don't they. Thanks for sharing.

Enjoyed the development in this one and look f or w ard to reading your next post. A little bit of humor added about Molly's pie. An exciting chapter and I will be reading the subsequent ones
