This story has potential but it's a little hard to follow. You jump around from one idea to another without really building well on any of them. You might try starting with the part where the van is in flames and the cops and EMS have arrived. Try to build a little more emotion into it also.

In just 500 words you have given the reader some fast furious action, a background that makes sense, and a strong evil character that makes one want to follow, to see if she gets away with it like her grandfather. She is definitely one bad seed.

This is another story I hope the writer turns into a proper book. I was gripped from the word go and it kept my attention right up to the end. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

A great page for the start of a thriller novel. Certainly eye-catching theme and story line and well presented. Your characters arouse interest and inspire one to read on. Couple of things as it is a contest: Para 1, delete comma after fifties and add comma before to be honest. Para 9, Now, lie down (lay is a transitive verb which requires an object, lie is intransitive) Good luck in the contest. Faye

A good beginning with plenty of details
about the characters backgrounds - which
draws the attention and made me feel I wanted more.....
good luck with the contest, Michael.

Now that is an interesting start to the story. Are you only doing it for the contest? Anyway, it is very well written. Good luck.
Take care.

You have accomplished your mission and then some. A great character, a female serial killer with unusual skills. You have already enticed with interesting background on grandpa. All in 500 words with no lags at all. I do hope you follow up on this.

Very compelling first page! you led me down the garden path, thinking that this was a movie stunt, when it was actually her own life! Apparently she has inherited her grandfather's sociopathic tendencies. Looking forward to the next installment. Caroline
