Holy Cats Gretchen!
I sure wish I had another six. Everyone has been on a roll this week though, and I'm all out. Wow, what a shocker that was. For a minute I was thinking the old man killed his wife physically, I'm glad that wasn't the case. You covered a lot of territory in this chapter gal. It was so much fun to read. Thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

    Thank you, Tom. I never saw it coming, that's for sure. This story twists and turns and I just hang on for the ride. Thank you for this awesome review. Gretchen

Another excellent chapter. I feel bad for Mr. Starling and his wife. They lived together for so long.

Intriguing and believable plot and characters. Well done!

This is a lot for her to have to carry, sounds a lot like my current husband I am separated from. He cares for no one but himself. Other people, his children, wife, mother, sisters are simply people to be used.You write well. Karen

Another fine chapter. That may well be why Dougie doesn't want to be found. But at least Bill and Rita have a chance to start again. Well written. Continuing to enjoy this story.

Miranda lives an interesting life, figuring out what her friend's husband is up to, looking for Dougie, and finding out he has even more reason to hide than she thought. Still, she does it all with aplomb and a smile. You keep the pot stirring.

    Thanks. Miranda might be getting in way over her head. Mr. Starling might just be the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. Thank you for this. Gretchen

Looks like some of the information that Miranda has been looking for is finally about to come out. It appears Dougie might have been mixed up in more than anyone who knew him might have thought. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks, Ric. Dougie is still pretty cloudy. I don't even know if he's a good guy or a bad guy. Gretchen

    That's what I like most about your characters. They are real to life people. Like all of us who have our pluses and minuses. :-)

I'm glad the first-person Miranda called was Mitch. Maybe she's learned her lesson. I'm sure she'll slip up once in a while. I really like this story.

I walk away from the candy i was restocking and join him where (candy I was restocking)

Use realised how unusual it is to write in the present tense! And so difficult to maintain as the past is such a natural mode to slip into. Impressive stuff as always. x

Miranda has a heart and really feels terrible to know Dougie may have got some one involved in a scheme that caused them to lose money and the wife is dead because of it. Something else she didn't need weighing on her mind. Apparently her friend Rita's husband told all. I always enjoy this story.
