This story reminds me of the Mad Magician starring Vincent Price. He put the body of someone he murdered in a football bonfire. What a wonderfully written chapter. Best of luck with your book!

Have a great day, and God bless.

    Thanks so much... The body needed to appear as if it was someone else in order to fit into the revenge plan. Thanks for reading and I hope you will continue to follow the story.

    Smiles, Carol

This is another great chapter and I was really on the edge of my seat. If I was to advise I would say it was a bit repetitive and words were overused in places. Thank you for sharing and take care.

This is a great beginning to your book. Your characters are interesting, although Vito doesn't seem too smart setting off exploding cans and drawing people's attention. Only one thing I see that you might want to change: "I'm still(ing) travelling . . ." Look forward to reading more of your story.

Your story certainly starts off with an explosive bang! Henry Pagani has no idea what he's gotten himself and his wife into, by inadvertently taking photos of the evil cover-up of a murderous plot.

It's interesting that Vito and his accomplice didn't notice the camera flash going off, as Henry took his photos. If they knew, it could put the couple's lives in danger.

A nice start to what appears will be a marvelous story.

The pace is good. The dialogue is believable. The imagery is detailed. The background activity is written in words that burst with chaos.

A good read. Thanks for sharing.

Well, I'm coming into the story late, but this is certainly a great chapter. I was engaged the entire time I was reading. I kept expecting Henry to be caught by Vito and Charles. Are you going to be posting more?

Well great! So glad you've stated us off on another wild and wooly journey--your ardent fans know we better strap ourselves in! This does not disappoint! So much occurring in so fast a turn of events! Grisly and eye opening detail. What we imagine is worse. Moretti's out for some serious revenge... I'm hyped and ready for another great ride!

Hi there, a chilling beginning of your new novel, and murder is committed right away. But unbeknown to Vito, it's all captured on camera, although the old man with the camera is not yet aware of what he really saw. Great stuff.
and I'm stilling traveling it. = and I'm still traveling it.
All best, Ulla:)))
