Wow! I loved this! I must go back and read from the beginning. Through the excellent dialogue and the subtle descriptions, I was able to easily follow along. Not because the anything was simple but because each sentence is well developed and packs a punch. I was wondering, is "poor mans booby trap" possessive? Thanks for a great story!

Thank you very much for reading and for your kind and generous review. Chapter one is an introduction, and chapter two is an expanded back story. I would love for you to circle back! Regards, Bill
Comment from Shirley McLain
Very good chapter. I enjoyed reading it. You gave more information about Dax which made things a little better to understand. I did find one word left out of a sentence and I have pasted it below.
How could you Mexico out of anything we've seen

Thanks for reading and following this story. I'll circle back around and look at your find. I very much appreciate your help!
Comment from RebelRose
This is a riveting chapter with a lot of background info. Anyone not already following the story could glean a lot from this one chapter. Naturally, the part about making it easy for Dax to leave, caught my attention. I think it is already going to be hard for him to.
I just found one nit ..."How could you [ ] Mexico out of anything we've seen?"

Give Dax an inch of information and he will take a mile. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for an easy read.

When I first tried to read your post, FS said it was deleted. I am glad it's back.
I only noticed one questionable speech tag and since I wasn't sure countered counted as a speech tag, I left it alone. Good job.

Barbara - thank you so much for reading. I always appreciate a six, but to get one from someone I admire is very special. The last two times I've tried to pull things into FS, they wound up getting posted before I was ready. That's what happened with this one. Good thing you didn't get in. You would have had a field day! Always warm regards, Bill

bhogg,
This is a gripping, well-written story that shows great originality and imagination. Apparently you have an acquaintance with weaponry. Very well done.
You may want to fix this little typo:
"Thanks, Cindy, we all better get [too] it."
should be [to].

Ew! What Dax did to the leader of the Hezbollah group was not as good as waterboarding? Wow! I can't understand why Dax was evicted either. I would want that man on my team anytime. This was another great chapter.

I haven't read the previous chapters, but I found this to be very exciting and interesting. I liked your descriptions--they were very vivid.

Thank you very much Max! If you ever get a few minutes, chapter 1 is an intro and chapter 2 is a long back story about the primary character Dax. Regards, Bill
