This is funny and I get to know a little bit more about Miranda since I didn't get in on the beginning of this. I know she is outspoken and sarcastic and she has intimidated her boss. She is also a very caring person who want everything good for Waylon. I don't what happened before with Missy and the trial.

In a nutshell, Missy was responsible for the death of one man and the disappearance of another. Miranda always suspected her in the disappearance of the one. But she had no idea she murdered anyone. Yes, Miranda loves Waylon. She loves fighting for the underdog. Thank you for this awesome review. Gretchen
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Well scary Miranda is on the war path and I'm scared! What a character and how you go on adding with her thoughts and actions to this very credible and formidable woman. I love that complexity when she is both annoyed and endeared by Matt going behind her back. She admires other people's resistance to her. All very vividly and enjoyably expressed here. Well done Gretchen! Debbie

Thank you so much. Miranda is great if you don't cause trouble for no reason. And she loves to fight for the underdog. Thank you so much for this. Gretchen

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Good plot movement.
It's never a good thing when Rita calls, in the first place. - You don't need the comma.
I don't quite understand the big deal about added help at the Little Eagle.
Best wishes.

Miranda doesn't want or think she needs someone there to "help". Matt knows how she got kidnapped by Missy last book. He feels a little bit responsible because she was working alone. He also knows she is going to be resistant to this new change. Does this help clear it up? Gretchen

Yes. Don't think I read the last book.
Thank you.

Great continuation of this tale. I love the way you take us into Miranda's head and let us go with her in her decisions. A thoroughly engaging character. Well done.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
A fine post Gretchen you have a wonderful way with words with your talented pen. Miranda is a strong woman.
I worked for a company once and the Manager who was pretty useless gave me a memory stick with some work on it. He forgot that there were also some nude pictures of himself also on the stick! I showed the pictures to my colleague. He suggested that I have an ace card now and the Manager is totally in my power! Ha ha ha, I did nothing about the pictures except to let him know I had seen them. He was horrified. When the Manager got the sack, everyone including the new Manager thought I was responsible! I wasn't. The new Manager remained afraid of me for the rest of the time I was employed there and yet I had never said a word to anyone about the pictures!
Funny how life works, I enjoyed your post Gretchen, you are a talented writer and it is always a pleasure to read your work, love Dolly x x x

Thank you so much. I do believe your review needs to be a full fledged story for you to write. Wow, talk about seeing a coworker out of a work environment. Lol. This was a funny review. Thank you for your king words. Gretchen

Yes it was a very funny situation, I did not do anything, yet everyone seemed to think I had some kind of power! Ha ha ha x

I am not sure that a young schoolkid will be able to protect Miranda, who is herself pretty tough. Why doesn't Matt want Miranda to know just yet? Does he have some other ulterior motive? Well written. I am intrigued.

I think Matt knows he's going to get push back from Miranda. He's looking out for her because she was taken from work when she had her final confrontation with Missy. He wants to protect her, but knows she'll put up a fight. Gretchen
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is really good. I didn't know how afraid her boss is of her, but I get why. She's a woman with purpose. She has a lovely relationship with Waylon and Rita. Everything is good except the last sentence in paragraph 4, which is awkward to read.

Thank you, Carol
I went back and read that line. You're exactly right. It is awkward. I will fix tomorrow. Thanks for this helpful review. Gretchen

So the fearsome Miranda had just heard from Rita that Matt has hired a boy to help Miranda, and presumably play bodyguard, as if, and help with the heavy hauling etc. a really good post, and true to yourself a great twist, well done. Blessings Roy

I decided that Preston, the basketball player from The Real Terry Joe McKinnon would fit in perfectly with Miranda. I really liked writing his character. Thanks so much for this. Gretchen
