Ok, that made short shift of the President. lol, so what is Samantha up to? This is really good. Whatever it was that Conner told her to press when she was with the President, was a message for Sam to kill him! Job done! Now what's going to happen? :)) Sandra xx

    My thought at this time were that she a total sociopath kept impulse-free through mind control. Once the cloud is lifted she acts out here homicidal bent.

Now that was a very neat murder. Will the cause ever be detectes? I wonder. Samantha seems to be aware of everything that is going on, yet
not sharing it with the President. Her killing him does not come as a surprise. Her role here is curious.

    Samantha is a reverse of other assassins in that she is KEPT civil.

Well heck now---There certainly is a change of pace in this chapter.
I have to wonder what did she know that I don't, do I need to know and when will I find out?
Next chapter?
Blessings

Well, that was the fastest, unexpected action (and I'm not talking throne stuff here) I think I've read in a while....I don't know, maybe you distracted me with the whole throne thing (eewww, by the way - lol!), but, wow!, that was fast! ;) ;) So, dead President and aid happy about the ocean... hmmmm. Thanx for sharing! ;)
**My apologies -- behind again! I actually managed to post but not anything else this week! :( Final exams dominated life (taking a break from grading this morning) and the weekend of 'moving sons' is gonna be BUSY!! :) :) LOL! Take good care and have a great weekend yourself! ;) Yvette

This is a pleasant read, even though I haven't read any of the preceding parts.

Here's a couple of things you might like to consider.

...where he was enjoying a Swisher Sweet while vacating a bowel. -- If it hadn't been for you image I'd have no idea what this meant. (I'm not referring to the Swisher Sweet.) Reading on, I think I'd get it, but I still think it's unclear. I think I'd use defecating.

Go ahead and press it while I finish my paperwork. -- Ha, ha. Tongue in cheek, James Bond-esque :)

    I see that ?evacuating a bowel? isn?t a widely used term, but for those who know it, the scene is made a bit lighter. Thanks for the observation @nd suggestion. : )

Way past interesting, Bill. Your usual and customary command of our crazy language, and a great result. This belongs in my "expect the unexpected" file. A commode murder? No one else could do that - DJ

    Thanks, DJ. I like to keep the reader, and myself, a little off balance.

Hey Bill, so, they've assassinated the President. I wonder what could be next? Sounds like a coo to me! Well, I suppose I'll see... and it looks like I'll be seeing soon! Sorry I've taken so long to get back... (see Cars, and you'll see why!) See you in a few! :)

I would say that the plot is about as thick as a bowl of pea soup. This plot is getting thicker and thicker. I am at a loss as to what might conceivably happen next. Nevertheless, I am poised to see it through to the next level.
Bring it.

This item is absolutely perfect for me. I must enjoy every single aspect of the item. I must leave that particular item and feel like I would tell someone about it, think about it or refer to it with confidence later during the day. The Author has paid particular attention to the language used and the words were chosen. Every single grammar issue has been resolved and there are no spelling mistakes. I would highly recommend this item to a friend.
