Chapter 25 of the book Dark Covenant The Berwick Witches Series: Book 1 "Demon At Large" What another excellent chapter you have delivered here. I enjoyed the formulation and I thought the narrative was pretty good too. Very well done.

Hi, Harriett. Splendid job here from start to finish. It has been a long time between posts but you sure haven't missed a beat.
Great dialogue:
"Oh."
"I have a jacket in the car. You want to go and get it?" She fingered in her handbag for her car keys.
"No. I'm good."
Also, concrete images throughout:like:
"The manager took the phone. "Hello?" he said, looking annoyed. Seconds into listening, his whole expression changed; his eyes grew wide and fixed. Holding the phone at his ear, he turned and slowly, walked over to a wall, pulled from it the master key--turned and walked back and faced Ward. "Seven twenty-three," the manager said like a bad recording and handed Ward the key."
Merry Christmas! Bob

Thank you, Bob. I'm glad you liked this chapter. And thanks for my first six star since coming back. :). You won't believe what I've got on my plate. I'm working with a narrator for my Glass Cat Eye Book. My editor did a fantastic job on The Animal Doctor, I'm really pleased. Your second book and mine looks like it's going to come out around the same time. I'm pushing for January for The Animal Doctor. When does your second book come out?
Oh, and Merry Christmas, Bob.

Probably early 2017 (lots ofpromo etc before release. Bob

It comes across to me as more like a family squabble, mate. Jewel does seem to have some awesome abilities though.
I like the bit where Ward is in the apartment, and sees his reflection in the mirror. I can imagine how he jumped as the same thing has happened to me. However, I was cleaning up a murder scene at the time. I do contract cleaning of crime scenes. (Much to my wife's disgust) Murders, drug labs, rapes

Comment from F. Wehr3
Really nice work! I enjoyed this piece. Take a look at this sentence, it contains three 'thats'.
'Nancy whimpered on the phone and told Ward that Karl was still unconscious and that the experts sounded to her that they were giving up on Karl.'
I looking forward to reading more of your work, very engaging. All the best.

Great chapter, I loved every part of this scene, it moved nicely and kept me engaged, and wanting to read more. You added just the right amount of humor and mystery and that part in the bedroom where he thought he heard something made me curious and a little nervous. Awesome.
that function better in a lower temperature than most people aren't(are) used to.

Very Good story and prose in my opinion. Ex. -
"Then he made his way to the bedroom. He walked past the bed and gasped loudly when he saw his own reflection in the mirror. He quickly recovered, holding his stomach and continued walking to a chest of drawers and picked up a hair brush; he also bent down and grabbed up a sneaker and the T-shirt lying next to it. He put the brush inside the sneaker and wrapped the sneaker in the T-shirt then stuffed it into his jacket pocket. An unfamiliar noise startled him. Ward high tailed it out of the apartment, down the hall and pushed the button on the elevator."
Happy Holidays!

FEAR will always be man's greatest enemy. Roosevelt said it best; "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.

I haven't been following this for awhile Amahra, so here goes, ward manages to get into the apartment of Karl, even though the police say everybody is forbidden by the police, although he is stopped by the manager, when he hands the phone to the manager, Jewel speaks to manager who hands the keys over to Ward. When he leaves the guard scratches his head wondering how he got in? Clever old Jewel, well done, Amahra, getting back into it, blessings, Roy

Don't forget Jewel is a witch; she did more than just speak to the manager. Thank you for getting back into it, Roy. Really appreciate it.

Yes I knew she was a witch, and has great powers, blessings, Roy
