I like how you include a character list at the end. I don't feel like anything was rushed in the portion, so looks like you slowed it down in your edit. I'm intrigued with this story and will have to start catching up when I get the chance to. Nice job.

Hi, Barbara;
It sounds like this dinner party could be the perfect foil to all of their plans. I'm concerned about the safety of Emily and Shana. If they send Emily to bed --- someone could kidnap her.

Looking forward to reading more,

~patty~

Hi there,

Well this sounds like a logistical and security nightmare... I think I'd stay in my room too.

A good, solid and technically sound write.

    Thank you. I have a feeling Shana may wish she stayed in her room. LOL

Sounds like a LOT of trouble to hold such a large party. Why is Drew doing it if he hates them? I must forgotten the reason. When you post only weekly, it's hard to keep the plot in mind. But you have a job. I'm retired. :)

Hello Barbara.wilkey,
It's a nice piece of Romance Fiction in continuation having smooth and captivating flow throughout from the beginning to the end.
Even if I unfortunately miss some parts, I catch up soon due to your laudable style of writing - Ending of Previous Post and then ...
Worth enjoying, especially when they are in short parts.
Waiting for the next part!

I love breakfast pizza!
And I'm with Drew when it comes to dinner parties.
In fact, I'm not going to the company Christmas dinner this weekend because of it.
That and I've seen enough of their faces in the past three months having only 8 days off total.
I love how you can manage to interact so many characters in conversation so smoothly.
It's like I'm a fly on the wall and listening to every word.
Terrific job!
Michael

Poor Shana, she hates all this and feels responsible. I wish I'd have bumped into someone like Drew when I was young! LOL. It sounds like there is going to be more people there than he wanted, but let's hope it serves the purpose. Another excellent part, my friend. :) Sandra xx

From my take of the story so far, the story is primarily about Shana and that mysterious family painting that was possibly part of the Raubkunst (Nazi-looted art). So my thoughts are that Shana should be a bit less "diminutive" in her role. She seems to always be in the background and always reacts to fellow protagonists or to situations around her, instead of actively acting.

Having said that - and those are purely my own personal take - the story continues to be excellent. No spags.

    Shana will assert herself all in good time. It's part of her Jewish culture to be in the background.

Really good writing once again. Looking forward to the next chapter. I am having a go at setting up my very first book. 'Geoff's Book Of Poultry" and it is not about chooks hehe. I tried a cover for it today. You may have read some of my weird poems here on FS.
