I know about panic attacks, good job, I could sense the panic. Also love the waitress and Mac connection. I bet they have cake there. :( XO

Sasha, I've been away so long, I don't know if you've changed or added much more to this book. I will have to go back and have a look but it will be tomorrow now as it is two thirty in the morning here and I really need my bed.
This is as riveting as ever. I love your style of writing. The dialogue is so natural and you describe things so well. Looking forward to catching up and reading more too.
Hugs

Yes, I have made quite a few changes to the story. I am pleased you enjoyed this chapter. It is good to have you back. We have all missed you.

You are becoming a master at building tension as they ho-hum through the laborious steps of a murder investigation. Each chapters leads a pinch closer with a tiny new clue. YOu go girl.

Oh man, don't stop now! Sasha, another excellent chapter. You set us us, got us all primed and left us with a fabulous hook.
Kudos, m'dear, outstanding. If I had a sixer left, you'd have it.

You have done a good job of describing a anxiety attack, I have them often, obviously not for the reason James had this one.
I have read all your story, I don't know what you mean by ghost, I'll go back an read the last chapter.

You aren't supposed to know. At the moment James doesn't even know, he is just describing it as a ghost..something that familiar, but unknown, keeps flashing in his head. For some reason it is frightening him and he doesn't know why.
Comment from barbara.wilkey
I joy James sense of humor and intelligence. It sounds like he has a handle on everything, even if he saw a "ghost". I really enjoyed this chapter. You did a great job describing the panic attack.

I like his sense of humor too. The 'ghost' will reveal itself soon. Glad you liked this chapter.

The stress is taking its toll on James. He is having panic attacks. Mac was able to calm him a little. I wonder if he can answer James' question about his past.

Comment from The Wood Work
And it continues...I like the relationship that has formed with these two and can see where it will become one of the most important in the story. I found no obvious errors. Can't wait for more...

Sasha,
chapter twenty is oustanding. There are not enough adjectives to adaquately describe how well this chapter is written. I'm enjoying reading all over again. Your dialogue is perfect with excellent narrative and great descriptive writing. I look forward to reviewing future chapters. I gave a six already or I'd give you a six. Check out Visionarypoet777 and her outstanding poem titled The Fading Song by VisionaryPoet777. Keep on cranking out the fantastic rewrites, my friend.
Love ya. . .Melissa!
