Comment from Shirley McLain
You have me convinced you're actually a great computer hacker, as well as an undercover special agent that deals with the drug cartels. In other words, you did a great job and I loved it. Shirley

Thank you so much, Shirley, for you kind words and generous review. Well, if nothing else, now you know I'm full of . . . you know, without me saying it. LOL. I just make it up as I go along, then search for what I don't know. I appreciate YOU!
Comment from Terry Broxson
The plot gets thicker...LOL, and what a plot it is! I do like the name Niall, I was wondering if you have a friend of that moniker. If so I am sure he is not a bad guy. Keep it up! Excellent work. Terry.

Thank you so much, Terry, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I did have a friend named Niall who worked for me about 15-years, who was a great guy, but not a good one. LOL. I've had fun with this foolishness, but even I'll be glad to end it and do something else. Much appreciated!

I am afraid by now, that I would have just given up and shot myself. Too much running and dodging for an old man like me. This exciting escapade has me tired and tuckered out just trying to follow all the surprise attacks, near deaths, unexpected discoveries. Too much, way too much. Exciting but way too much. I am ready for the next exciting adventure.

Thank you so much, Nomi, for continuing to hang with this long and arduous adventure. Plus another of your kind and extra special six-star reviews. It's not good when we get worn out from our own stories, but I've been trying to end this one since the third chapter. LOL. Hopefully, the next chapter will be the last and we both can take a break. I appreciate YOU!

Take your time. I may be old, but I am still alive. I think I can hang on for a bit longer. I want to see the end as well. I just hope I don't suffer a big shock.
Comment from BethShelby
Wow! this one was action packed. There were plenty of close calls for Tucker, Tammy, TC and Harold in this one. Apparently Tucker Idea of having the Cartel and Farnwsorth go after each other because the they believe Farnsworth was taking the stolen money from the back must not be working as planned. I'm curious as to how Farnsworth knows that Tucker and Tammy are at the St Regis. He claims he'd not the bad guy and he's trying to warn Tucker. I'm Just curious does Tucker carry around a pocket full of tampons to clog up the bullet holes in case someone gets shot? It is disturbing to know hackers are able to get into bank account and clean them out so easily. Is that from research? This was fun to read and well written.

Thank you so much, Beth, for your extra special six-star review. The next chapter will answer all your questions . . . I hope. And no, Tucker doesn't carry tampons . . . well, at least I don't think he does, but I'm sure they were in the room they slipped into LOL. Yes, the things I have discussed are how easy it is to steal someone's band information. I appreciate YOU and your sticking with my crazy story.
Comment from barbara.wilkey
Okay, this is really good and I enjoyed reading. I hate the idea of only one more post. I surely hope you can find Tucker another job.
With the Pilot and crew exiting the stairs, (lower case 'p' on 'pilot')
Tucker sneezed from the dust, then continued. "Can Tammy and T.D. use your truck?" (comma after 'continued')
He knows you're coming, and he'll fly you to safety. (TRY- He knows you're coming and will fly you to safety. )

Thank you so much, Barbara, for the kind words, suggestions, and generous review. I always make plenty of mistakes from not knowing better, but these were strictly from trying to hurry and get posted. LOL. I always appreciate the time you spend pointing them out to me. I appreciate YOU!
Comment from amahra
You made this chapter quite exciting, Ric.
Also, I liked that you made TD's sacrifice humorous and not a tear-jerker. It was funny. However, kraut and mustard, Ugh! LoL!
The steel-wired barrier soon turned [slight-right] is slight-right a name for the turn or should it be [slightly right?] Just asking.

Thank you so much, Amahra, for the wonderful six-star review. I'm with you. The thought of kraut and mustard gags me. LOL. But I felt it would be an attention getter. Slightly right would be the right answer. When I get to rushing to post there is a chance I could come up with anything. I always appreciate you and your kind and generous reviews!
Comment from royowen
Love the goings on in this frenetic episode Ric. The action commenced almost from the outset and continued, and then the escape. Sometimes it's tough trying to work out the goodies from the baddies, but in the modern action films it's likewise the same. Beautifully written, Robin Hood characters are great too. Blessings and good luck, Roy
Typo : You (too) need each other. Two?

Thank you so much, Roy, for your kind and generous review. Sometimes I whip myself into a frenetic frenzy and write words that I don't even recognize. LOL. I used two in the sentence referring to the two of them, but I think I'll change it to "you all need each other." Thanks for hanging with this long one. I appreciate YOU!

Most welcome
Comment from John Ciarmello
I'm returning the SIX simply because Harold and T.D escaped the bombing. TD's kraut and mustard and Harold's cole slaw cheese dog with mayo dripping down his shirt was a perfect lead to their survival (Loved it). This read like a run away passenger train, bobbing and rocking and gliding from one exciting scene to the next. It's one of the many things I love about your writing style, Ric. I'm saving another six for the end of this. (If it ever comes? I hope not!) Best, JohnC

Thank you so much, brother John, for your kind and generous six-star review. I was in such a hurry to get this one posted that now I'll need to practically rewrite it to clean up the mistakes. LOL. I'm glad someone understand it's my mind out of control. I appreciate YOU!
-
LOL. I don't look for mistakes, I look for content and sensations. You always give me both. You are one of my favs!
-
I feel the same way about your stories. The vivid descriptions never fail to put me in the moment. I should pay more attention to my senseless nits. But if I slow down, and edit, I lose the intensity. LOL.
-
I agree, Ric. Honestly, whatever nits you might have unedited doesn't bother me. I love the intensity.
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
For once I am stuck for words. I am incapable of reviewing this properly because there are too many words and concepts I don't understand. I don't know whether your discussion of hacking is realistic or not, and yet so much of the story hangs on it. Also the unexplained escape of Harold and T.D. perplexes me. I got to the end of this chapter feeling I had just been through a fantasy story. Maybe this was deliberate? Kate xx

Thank you so much, Kate, for your kind and generous review. I didn't figure it was important "how," but just that Harold and T.D. did escape. I didn't want to spend too much time on characters that didn't really matter . . . yet. LOL. Thanks for sticking with this long and tedious story. I appreciate YOU!
-
I don't think I was kind. Generous, perhaps. You are too towards me. Maybe good breeds good. Who knows? I think how is important to the reader (at least to me). For minor characters, they sure had an important role. 'How' expressed succincly would enrich the tale (my humble opinion, not fact). I will stick with you through thick and thin... you deserve it. K

PS it isn't long and tedious, it's fascinating.
