This is an interesting and detailed story. It is kind of sad to think that there are people who would do that kind of thing this couple dead. It is sad or that there are people in convalescence in long-term care facility to have no one no family no one to care for them at all. Patricia.

    Thank you Patricia, for your review and insightful comments. There are times when someone out lives all family and has no one to look after their best interest. Thanks for reading and for your generous stars.

That was a cleverly-written story of a couple of hustlers who have perfected their scheme. They seem to have planned for variations and made good use of little details like the yellow dress in the closet. It was a good surprise ending. Nice job. Jim

Well, this was just creepy all day long. I didn't see any errors but I was really immersed in the story.

I hope this stays fiction and isn't going on out there somewhere.

    Thank you Doug, for your review and humorous comments. If I could think this story up, I'm sure some ruthless people out there can also think of it. Thanks again for reading and for the stars.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is an outstanding story! I was completely engaged and thinking what a loving daughter and son-in-law Maria had. I was stunned when I learned the truth. They were crooks, but on the other hand, they made Maria's last few months pleasant, visited her every week and brought her flowers. That doesn't make what they're doing okay, but it's a lot more than some elderly people get. Really excellent story. I'm glad I had one six left!

    Thank you Mary, for your review and insightful comments. You are right. Some elderly people don't have anyone to look out for them. Marla in my story, paid a million dollars for those flowers. But she died happy. Thanks again for reading and for SIX beautiful, bright, shiny stars.
