Interesting Mikey. At least sakes, most of the children are free. But how will the girl escape the witch, with a gun? Looks like the Hempen Halter is tightening around her neck. Amazingly, I Remember what is going on. There must be a plan b? She is running out of options. Good addition to your novel. Well done. wackydo. Count your doubloon, sir.

Elsa grabbed Angela and drug her away - dragged
looked down at Carlos, who wasn't moving - add comma
Elsa and Angela weren't on the road they choose - chose/for tense consistency
didn't look up from the ticket he scribbled on it - ticket he scribbled on.
Go east, young man - add comma for direct address
Lots of exciting action and high drama
Good use of dialogue to express intense emotion

Exciting chapter with lots of action. Poor Angela on the run with a madwoman, the worst kind! At least the kids are safe. It's up to those detectives now to sort it out. I will email you when I get back home. I wished you congrats on my profile page. Thanks for your good wishes. All my predictions about writers on this site are coming true, Jax, Avril (Cumbrianlass) and you!!! Enjoyable as always. Faye

This one has a lot happening. It's well written. The only thing I would suggest is more dialog at the top as you did at the bottom. The kids in the car could have been giving unfounded advice to the young driver.

However, three's nothing wrong with it as it is. The kids except Angela, are safe so she will get her chance to be a hero.

Jesus jumping cornstarch- is the Bard contagious? And now Angela headed to Mormon country. I think there are still polygamist fringe groups out there. Good luck to the Bard in going undercover w/Tenyaya and Lucy. Just one minor fix- drug- dragged.

    I know it should be dragged, but for some quirky reason that sounds so wrong to me. Hahaha. So does dreamed. I want to write drempt. Well, I'll just put what is correct. But, when I'm rich it will become a quirk that is cool. mikey

I love the story. Angela was able to free some kids, but now she is in big trouble. She is being taken to where Bard and his group have some experience. This is a benefit. You can now count on Angela helping to save herself. I am eager for more. Great work.

I have the feeling that you could write about anything and make it interesting. These characters are so clear that they are iconic. The Bard is as strong a character as I have read in years. He has so much range and he is believable. Remarka

    There I go with here/hear again. Good eyes! I guess I'm back to one a day maybe. That's the consensus to maintain interest they say. That's a novel. Autobiographies are different I'm told. You can take your time a bit with them. mikey

Wonderful episode. Love the Bard's comments, as always.

>>You don't get Dr. Pepper when you're in trouble. Every kid knows that.

It's lines like this that help readers to relate to you and your characters. Excellent!
