Well done. Exciting, disturbing premise. Your phrases express the emotions that must be occurring. I have a few nits, but hardly worth mentioning. Keep up the good work. Dan :))

Barbara,
Glad to hear you are still hanging in there and doing well with the chemo..or as well as anyone could. My heart feels the terror and confusion in Sara..a missing child is a horrifying experience that one never forgets. Great chapter.

Comment from L.lora
A very well written addition
to your storyline. Your discriptions
remain strong as does your dialogues.
Your dialogues are very realistic and
draw your reader in, they become as if
being spoken by someone we know very
well--a friend. Looking forward to your
next post. no nits or spags...Hope you
had a good holiday and that all went
well with the chemo. Lora

Comment from Dave M
Barbara,
Maybe this will be the break they need. I really enjoyed this chapter. It shows how tested a romance can be by such horrid adversity and uncertainty.
I found no nits of any sort but did spot a possible logic error:
"I know the parents of the five girls we rescued are glad to have their daughters back, but they aren't Cassie." I thought they had rescued seven girls but could be wrong. I also think that five is a better number to use.

Seven girls the first time and five girls this time. I have taken a beaten with this post; a three and then although he gave me a 5, he said this chapter could be condensed into one or two paragraphs. I am considering bringing my cat claws out. Thank you for your support.
Comment from RKagan
Hello, this is another wonderful chapter. It reminds us that we need to be aware of who are kids are messaging on the internet. Why does Sara have to leave once they find Cassie? I hope she doesn't. I read your author notes and I am still keeping you in my prayers, my friend.

Hi Barbara,
First of all I am glad you survived your third round of chemo! This is a heart-breaking chapter. I feel sorry for everyone involved in the quest to find Cassie. Thinking of my own daughter I know I would be beside myself if this happened to her. I hope Sara will tell Joe how much she loves him soon. Well done. Blessings, chey

Comment from Sefiros
I once had a character sigh eight times. The effect was lamb-basted. Yes everyone is on edge about Cassie. Yes there's some tension about the budding romances. You don't have to beat it with a dead horse. Condense everything in this entry in a paragraph or two. Good luck.

My dear, this is a romance. There are certain formulas followed by romance writers. I am under the impression you don't normally read romance, am I correct?
Comment from sheilanewton
You're dealing with a very emotive subject, and I have to say, you're doing it well. I wrote a short story about an abduction via a chat room and it was one of the most difficult things I've ever done.
Well done.
I like your dialogue. I like that you don't waste words and have your characters waffling unnecessarily!
Good for you.
A really well-written chapter. Is it going to be a happy ending - or not! (said she with baited breath!)

barbara.wilkey,
Another great post in your usual error-free storytelling style. Emotions are running high and these emotions are transferred to the reader through your words. Well done.
