Great piece, letting us in on the sheriff and what's going on there. I bet that he regrets ever taking that money, especially now that she'd dying. Great job.

Comment from FredCollingwood
Another great addition to your book. I love how you seamlessly weave humor into the tension and intrigue. Had to laugh at the fart line.

Comment from Sally Carter
Another fast moving chapter, Bill.
A convincing picture of Sheriff Bailey, both in appearance and character. And a well explained, believable reason why he would be in Boudreux's pocket.
I really thought he was going to shoot himself! So good suspense there, broken by the telephone call.
In the para about Bailey's wife, no apostrophe needed in "Docs".
And an errant inverted comma has crept in at the end of the fifth para up.
Apart from those two tiny things I spotted, a pacy read, which I enjoyed. Great stuff!

"pictures were of the sister of the assailant" Do you mean the victim?
Good chapter. You give a good characterization of the sheriff and his personal problems. He is in some tough situations, personal and political.

Great story full of intrigue and action. Your characters are excellent and so is the dialogue. I did not see any obvious errors. Good job.

Bill,
chapter eleven is riveting and very well written with excellent dialogue and great descriptive writing. I enjoyed getting in Sheriff's head. Typical small town with the sheriff who's been on the job since Moses. I enjoyed the levity you add to drama and I quote: "In the old days, people didn't even fart in public without him being notified." We learn he's turning a blind eye to Bouderaux and his drug business. In my book that makes him just as guilty as the man. He was tempted to pull the trigger when he put the gun in his mouth. I was intrigued by Jimmy's statement to Dax: "He must be doing something right, or he wouldn't keep getting elected." I look forward to reading chapter twelve. You did a marvelous job on this chapter. You offer the right amount of tension with humor.
Melissa.
