Hi,
From your synopsis, I can only imagine the horror Sophia went through.
I'm glad Linda escaped and I hope she can reach Diana Camp and Winston Lee. You had excellent descriptions and action in this chapter.

The way she manages to free herself was hard for me to grasp.
But then, there goes fiction. The following passage not only made me laugh, but
also eased me off the tension and disbelief,
bringing me back to the story:

"Gull dang, Missy!" spouted Olan. "Yer runnin' faster 'an yer clothes kin keep up wit. Heck! The whole a the back a dis here purdy dress is plum gone."

Altogether a great story I'll come back to again.

I absolutely loved the way she handled the ticket guy!!! Linda is not your normal... anything. Pulling her joints out of the sockets to escape the hospital restraints? Getting up after a tackle, a huge gouge in her head, and a punch the the head? Putting her eyeball back in?

First, I don't think an eyeball can actually be punched out from behind... it messes with my suspension of disbelief. But her ferocity? I like it.

Still reading!

Thanks, EP, for reading this. I have read of various circumstances where someone's eyeball was dislodged. In combat, medics have applied pressure and replaced the eye in the socket. I went with this scene to sell Linda's bad-assness and endurance. I'm certain that most people would be frozen with terror in this situation.

I know eyeballs can be dislodged, just don't know anyone who could do it by hitting someone in the back of the head--unless they had a 2 x 4, LOL. She is definitely badass. I like her.

Linda is one bad ass. Any man that takes her on had better be good at whatever he does because clearly she does not mess around. I love her decisiveness, her action and her take no prisoner attitude. I would love to read much more about her. Sophia seemed like a perpetual victim, but Linda ain't taking no mess from anyone. Go Linda, go!

Hi Bill; wow, this chapter was full of action, and it just didn't stop. Her way of gettin the bus ticket was quite unexpected. You kept the blood and gore down to a minimum, but it was still easy to see the scene. Looking forward to more,
~patty~

I enjoyed the fast pace of this and the face that the central character is a strong woman. The description is carefully written to ensure that the reader is able to visualise the scenes. Thanks for sharing.

To find out where both Diana Camp and Winston Lee lived, Linda escaped from the hospital, after a series of struggles and hit and got injury being almost naked, she left for Boston; now what after this? I enjoyed the escaping endeavour.

There is nothing more attention grabbing than waking up in the hospital. This immediately drawing the readers attention and makes the reader dig deeper and focus more on the chapter. I like the transition. I like the balance. The pace is consistent as the writer does a good job of taking the reader where the reader needs to go.

finger deep into Olan's right eye, bursting the orb ...

and then her own eye is hanging out....

I should have heeded your warning. This is really good writing (love how she "handled" the ticket agent) but I can't read this sort of thing... way too squeamish. Too bad, because it sounds so exciting. You're a darn good writer, but I wish you wrote tamer stuff. :)

Thank you, Phyllis, for giving it a look. I'm sorry if it was too much. Bill

reply by Phyllis Stewart on 23-Aug-2013

Never apologize. You are writing a dynamite story. My hubby would love it... he can handle gore and blood and such, because he sees it as "just a story". I identify too much with characters, tho. It's just me, not you. :)
