Lots of action building up. This made me chuckle. As a young teen, I loved Wayne Newton before my interest moved on. Haven't thought of him in years. I'm sure we're going to see some action from Angela in all of the soon.

    Same here, don't like being rowdy anymore. Don't like loud fireworks all that much. Can't drink, everything that's good to eat on holidays is off my diet, guess I just sit home and write.

This scene at Caesar's is playing out very well, the descriptions and set-up is really good. I liked the idea that the father may be able to assist with the capture of the son. Most enjoyable read. Faye

Mikey, this is well constructed with purpose and direction. It is cohesive with apropos dialogue. The actions of the pomp-ass people involved. Well done. :0 GracieAnn

Just one suggestion- if Winston boards a chopper and it is bound to be taken down, could you add Siegfried and Roy and Celine Dion to the mix? Please?

    Okay, but I'm throwing Phil Collins in with them for covering "Can't Hurry Love". It's the right thing to do.

    Hey, cool with me. I was always a Peter Gabriel fan myself. Toss in Slim Whitman too.

Good work again mate. Glad you are back on this story.
Well done plenty of drama and excitement still.
One spag possibly.

But(,?) the FBI were aware...did it need a comma there?

    Yeah, I don't think I do need that comma. Getting better at them though! I took a couple days off the story and I feel refreshed now. Glad you liked it.

Oh my, Winston has Wayne Newton :) I like the way you describe the way it is for the captives. Even the way soldiers only follow orders, like their not allowed to think for themselves. Another great chapter and I didn't spot any obvious errors.

A great twist. Love some if the dialogue here. The FBI guy is a scream. Just a little over the top but not a buffoon. Good idea to get Winston iut of the picture I think. Fun stuff and then back to the kids. Hopefully the Bard can squeeze a clue out of Winston. NG
