This is another good addition to your novel. I only found one dialogue error. Good job.
Dax thought for a moment before answering. (comma)

Comment from Soledadpaz
I don't know why, but this chapter reminded me of the sleepy little Texas town that I'm from. And it also transported me to the time I was married to a police officer. Thanks for the nostalgia. I'm sure that was not your intention when you wrote this great chapter. Great read.

When I read the name Dax, science fiction pops into my head. Anyway good little crime story we have especially with the revelation of a meth lab.
Good work, good characters

Thanks Carl - If you found it interesting, chapters 1 and 2 would give you enough background to follow the story. Thanks for reading and your kind feedback. Regards, Bill
Comment from Rama Rao
An excellent chapter which is taking the story forward at a good speed. Now that Stanley and Nikki found the lab, the next chapter will have lots of actions. Don't keep us waiting for long.
A few spags, I think.
Donny and Jake weren't pushovers, and he apparently ate their lunch-they for he.
but if you had seen the look on my face when Gus turned around, it alone would answer your question. -it alone would have answered your question.

Comment from marcii
This chapter is pretty good though a few things bothered me and I may just be a bit picky today.
'Circling round,' sounds like it should be something at a rodeo it to me doesn't seem to fit the characters or situation.
Also the breakfast seen, you mention what she's making it and then the next minute they eat and coffee. Perhaps this could be worded better.
Overall the story continues to be good.

Thanks Marcii - I should be more sensitive to FS reader base. circle back around is a common phrase in the U.S. I'll look at the other area. I appreciate you reading and for the input. Regards, Bill

Hi Bill! I could not see any spags! ") And this is a compelling and interesting read! We live in an area that has meth labs, supposedly, and this mix of meth and the bad kinds of hillbilly's is not a good one! And I think your dialogue is superb, I am trying to learn to do it better! Very good work here, as always Bill!! ") Susan

Comment from Gungalo
Aha, so the plot thickens here and they have their hands full. Love the intrigue you've managed in this chapter and they way your characters have truly become ... real.
Sorry you, I mistakenly hit the wrong star button. Please forgive this poet. I love this write.

Hi - Thanks for reading. A rating of four generally would suggests needs improvement. Is there anything that you might suggest. Regards, Bill
Comment from Fireshadow
Bill, this is an extremely well written narrative that flows and reads very smoothly with its detailed descriptions, crisp dialogue and words rich in texture. The storyline is evolving at a nice clip as you're strengthening the characters' profiles. Found no spag errors. Only one suggestion : sat on the built(-)in bench. Otherwise, very well done, my friend.
