Wonderful chapter.

I just loved when she was pelting the bad guys with stones. That was a fun part to read. You keep me on my toes. I mean, I'm done with a chapter before I'm ready to stop reading, lol.

I'm off to read more. I'm enjoying this story very much.

A lovely photo/picture that complements your chapter perfectly. Where is the accent from? I think it slowly came back to me that I reviewed a few chapters before. Joe is looking for his children. You went with him. Many obstacles on the road. I can't correct you, sorry.

    Thank you, Ine, this is an UK English dialect back in 1850s, and is still around today. In some areas. Yes, you have read my book before, you read the first one in the series last year, It's lovely to see you here and hope you will continue to pop in. Yes, there are many obstacles on the way. Thank you again, my friend. I hope you are okay? Big hugs, Sandra xx

This is a fine story speaks how Joe was misunderstood, cornered even when something grave happened that her children were missing; well said, well done; thank you for sharing this with us. Keep writing. DR ALCREATOR

HI Sandra,

This story makes more sense to me since you explained the time travel. Your title of, "This Time, That Time" is so perfect now that I understand it. Hoping time will get her away to safety in her own time soon so she can fight the bad guys.

    I'm so pleased it's making sense now, Joy. I put a synopsis of this book in my author's notes to help new readers and another synopsis of my completed book, which started this whole trilogy off. It was so popular, and is selling well. And yes, I was really gobsmacked! Poetry has always been my thing, as you know. I still like to keep my hand in that side too, but it's not so easy to keep up with it at the moment. Thank you so much for coming along and reading this, that's so nice of you. :) Big hugs. Sandra xx

Nice work, Sandra. I enjoyed the action in this part and the uncertainty of what will happen next.

Joe's alarm had triggered my own concern and I quickened my step to catch up.--Suggest a comma before and.

Take care,
Russell

Bravo again. I think for many of us in America we tunnel through understanding the UK language. Most os us appreciate the hard work and time it takes to create a good story. Hope your sales are good.

    Aww, thank you, Ben. I know it must be difficult to read the varied UK English dialects, sometimes I don't understand the people from the North of England, so different to the South. Thank you my dear friend for the lovely 6 stars. The sales are coming along, but not in the top ten ratings yet!! LOL. Big hugs! xxx Sandy xx

-A terrific story, Sandra, that
is full of action.
-I didn't think things were
looking good for Joe's kids
from the last chapter, but leave it
to Sir John to pit loved ones against
loved ones to get what he wants.
-Ver. really pitches in for this story,
you might say!
-Her invisibility to most people is
a great asset as she helps out Joe.
-The action between Joe and Sir John's
cronies was excellent.
-The paragraph beginning "A howl, so terrifying
that even the two men stopped grinning"
and the next one really show Joe's
spirit and courage in order to protect his children.
-As far as cliffhangers go, the ending is excellent,
and leaves us wondering what will happen until
the kids and Aunt Gladys are free, and what will
happen to Joe in the meantime?

    What an amazing review, Pam, thank you so very much. I did have fun with the fight. Being brought up in my early years with three uncles near to my own age, helps put me in the mind of a man, and for getting stuck into a fight! lol. They had four sisters (my mother one of them) much older than them. Now, Veronica has to think up a way to get the Gladys and the kids away from the thugs and help Joe. Not much to ask ... Is it? Thanks for the galaxy of start, my dear friend. There's 7 in the lower ones this time!! :)) Big hugs, my friend. :) Sandra xxx

    I am glad you liked the review, Sandra! I loved the chapter. Thanks for sharing where the mindset came from for Ver.'s spunk! I don't know if you like baseball or not, but that's where the 'pitching in' came from (ha, ha). Of course, it is not too much to ask of Ver.! I thought I had given you those stars before, and I never counted them, but you deserve all of them and more.
reply by the author on 23-Jan-2018
    We don't have baseball in England, the nearest we come to that is a girls sport called, 'Rounders' same principle, you try to get around the pitch to score a run, but it's only the girls who play it here, and that is only in school. Strange really, that it's not a major sport here as well.
    Yes, you have used the stars before, but they had 5 stars while this one had 7! :)) I'm just really pleased you like this part. :)) xxx

    Thanks for the info. You are right about the stars! Sometimes there are extra special ones. One of your best chapters, Sandra.

The drama increases substantially here, like a Dickens story.
A nice touch with Joe instinctively putting out his arm to protect Veronica.
Great action scene; one would think you were a fighter in your younger days.
Sandra the Thumper.
Not a thing to criticize in the entire story, other than the fact that it ends...
Methinks Veronica may have a bit of fun
and scare the you know what out of the burly man with the cudgel.
Just a thought. Nothing like having a ghost or time traveler on your side.
This is one of the best chapters you've written, my friend.
Well done.
Have a wonderful, peaceful week.
RS

    What a lovely compliment, Robert, thank you so much! Yes, I was a bit of a terror, but my early playmates were three uncles ranging from two to five years older than me, and a brother. I didn't stand a chance, so had to learn how to stand up for myself. Such fun days! Thank you for this wonderful review, my dear friend, I really appreciate your continued support, and the comments you make. (some so funny!) :) Sandra xxx

    p.s. I love the name Sandra the Thumper! LOL xxx

This was a very exciting chapter and your use of the accents was very good. I loved the rock throwing and wanted more-evil one I am, I guess.

    I'll try to remember that, JoAnn. There is a bit more to come in the next part, and that's all I'm saying!! LOL. Thank you so much, my friend, for this really wonderful review, and all those stars. I'm so very pleased you enjoyed this part!! Big hugs. Sandra xxx

I think this was a pretty strong chapter. Action packed it, and the scene with the two men accosting Joe and you fighting for him, was tense and the dialogue well executed. I think the scene was really strong and I could imagine it as a film flickering before my eyes while I read it. You've also got great suspense at the end when she finds the kids held captive by these thugs. and we are also worried about what will happen to Joe. So you have lots of things going on here at the same time, great conflict, well delineated protagonists and antagonists necessary for an action piece like this. estory
