Thank you for reading my chapter, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Like you, I hope his plan works, but the detectives are very good at their job.
Thank you again for your kind review, all your help, support, encouragement, and friendship. It means a lot to me, take care.
Comment from Liz O'Neill
Your use of dialogue is well done. There is no confusion with who is talking. There was an excellent twist of the thinking of the reader. Our train of thought was going one way. The suspense was fueled with us thinking it was the Sargeant Bower at the window and yet a part of us were hoping we were wrong and that it might possibly be Barry. What a relief. You leave the reader in suspense. There is no question that we will not be back to watch the plan unfold. I have to give this A+

Comment from tfawcus
This fast moving plot is filled both with tension and suspense. The internal monologue is outstanding. You have a way of getting right inside the mind of your characters.
A couple of minor typos:
The dash remains completely dark. "The batter(y) is dead. "He collapses over the steering wheel
since his (he's) like one of the family and all.

Comment from Cindy Warren
I guess Jeff and Tony had it coming. They would have killed Jeremy if Barry hadn't stopped them. Framing somebody is hard. Cops can usually smell it. Will it work?

Thank you so much for your continuous support, it's always greatly appreciated. You're right cops usually do figure it out. Will it work? If it doesn't Both Barry and Jeremy will serve some prison time.
Thank you again for your great review, all your help, support, and friendship. It means a lot to me, take care.
Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hi Mistydawn. In this chapter in addition to keeping the action going, you threw in a twist with Paul and change the motives and actions a little. It was done clearly so it works.
There was one typo in the dialogue: "The batter is dead." I'm sure you meant Battery. Robert

The plot thickens....que the music...da ta da.......lol
Getting good!
You have been doing a great job on your writing. I'm at a stand still right now. Been trying to get stuff together for some craft shows starting next month for Nov and December. We leave for Texas next Thursday and will be gone until Tuesday the 29th. YAY! I won't be taking my laptop. Too much of a hassle with the plane. So will only have my ipad.
I am interested in how Barry thinks he can frame Jeff and his friend for Paul's murder? Hmmmm

Jeremy's biological dad that he doesn't know rocks up, when he thought it might be the police and he gets into trouble, but he doesn't know it was Barry finished off Paul. Now, after Barry has secured Jeff and Tony, he has a plan to frame them for Paul's murder. Well done, good episode, blessings, Roy
Typo : While(s) Tony continues...2: Jeremy co(a)xes...3 : the sergeant(')s backwork...4: best if (she) stayed at the station...

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
I think you said PAUL again where you didn't mean to. He was killed by the boar, wasn't he? You should check for the name Paul here and see where the error is. That confused me earlier and it's happening again.

I did it again. Darn that Paul I kill him and he comes back to haunt me. Maybe I need an exorcist? There's a question for you. How do you keep book charaters from coming back once they are dead?
Feeling goofy must be the pine sol I just used.
Thank you so much for your great review, all your help and support. and your friendship. it's always greatly appreciated, take care.
I'll check that now.

You were right, I did. I fixed it. Thanks for catching that. Sorry about the confusion.
