Tucker: The Getaway (Part-5)
The threesome breaks free-temporarily.34 total reviews
Comment from karenina
As always, you deliver superbly intense action--drawing us into the scene with crystal clear descriptions of what's happening. Your use of dialogue is secondary to showing us what's going on and allowing us to absorb the tension and high drama!
"With no time to bother with the lock and chain, he kicked and broke out a series of pickets, creating space to slither and slip his body through."
Come on! One example of many, where you give us the cinematic view of what's going on and I'm on the edge of my seat!
I know you're anxious to wrap it up, but I'm all in for another couple of chapters, minimum!

Thank you so much, Karenina, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. Plus it's better than a double scoop of dipping dots for a review I wasn't expecting to get. I appreciate YOU!

Thanks! The feeling is mutual!
Comment from Ulla
I know that feeling. The story takes a life of its own and it won't let you be. Isn't that a wonderful feeling when you think about it? I really liked what I read. Ulla:)))

Thank you so much, Ulla, for your kind words and generous review. You are so right about those runaway stories that control us rather than us controlling them. Much appreciated!
Comment from lyenochka
Whew! What a heart-thumping chapter! Well, it was looking good starting with a MacGyver-style ingenuity for Tucker's escape, then poor Heavy was forced into helping. I don't even want to imagine how the thugs' bodies were disposed and the barrels etc. But it's good to have a friend in flying places but it seems that he narrowly escaped getting killed. Now what will they do since their hideaway has been found out? I guess we stay tuned until your muse strikes again! Thanks for the exciting escape part!

Thank you so much, Helen, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I've been trying to end this story for three chapters and the farther I go the harder it gets. LOL. I wasn't expecting much of a turn out on the 4th of July and for the 5th part of this story, but right now I'm like a little kid in a candy store. Excited and thankful for of you talented writers who've taken time to offer your encouragement. I appreciate YOU, every day!

I didn't want to stop reading once I started, although I haven't followed this since the beginning. This segment was packed with action and suspense. Thank you for the read.
Best wishes,

Thank you so much, Leather, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. Honestly, I think it's hard to pick up on the full scope of the characters built throughout brick after brick from chapter one. I wish you have been around, I think (hope) you would have liked it even better. But for you to take time at part-5 makes your encouragement all the more special. Much appreciated!
Comment from jenintorre
Well Ric although I hate violence. I am really enjoying this fast paced story and am very curious about how it will end, I wait with bated breath. Great writing.
I hope you win story of the month. Take care. Jen.

Thank you so much, Jen, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I don't know what will happen by the end of the month, which is a long time away, and people tend to forget about what happens in the first couple weeks. LOL. I'm just happy for the kindness and encouragement of you and those I read and enjoy every day. I always appreciate YOU!
Comment from Sally Law
Thank you, Rambo. This is thrilling writing, number one; and two, suspense wound tight with surprises. Your characters are real, rough, and tough as they battle the bad guys.
A six for today. Sending you my best as always,

Thank you so much, Sal, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I'm not yet to writing your caliber of mystery and intrigue, so I just throw in action and disguise everything else in blood and guts. LOL. It's the encouragement of you and those I read and learn from every day that means the most. I appreciate YOU!
Comment from John Ciarmello
I'm hoping this doesn't end, Ric! Fantastic chapter! Tucker's escape was brilliant and his shooting Heavy was an intense scene. I loved this part/5. I hope it doesn't let you end it! Haha. Great write!

Thank you so much, John, for your kind words and generous review. I don't like writing all these parts and have been trying to end this for three chapters. LOL. I'm just glad for those of you I read and learn from every day are still taking time out to read my foolishness. I appreciate YOU!
-
I enjoy your penmanship, Ric! You're an exciting writer, and I'm drawn to that style. You are a talent, my friend.
-
Thank you so much, John, and the feeling is mutual about your writing. You're one of those few writers whose heart shines between the words.

Thank you, my friend.
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
Wow. More and more this wonderful work reminds me of the Saturday morning cinema sessions we used to go to when I was between seven and ten. The cinema was just across the street from the house, so me and my brother were allowed to go without our parents. We felt so grown-up. There were always funnies, but especially the episodic action serial. Hard- and fast-hitting, running from one cliff-hanger to another, and so action-packed we were kept breathless. Your story is just like that. Thank you so much for transporting me back so many years. Kate xx

Thank you so much, Kate, for your kind words and generous review. Knowing this really isn't your cup of tea makes it all the more special that you take the time to read and offer such encouragement. I appreciate YOU!
Comment from nomi338
Man oh man, you sure do know how to write exciting chapters. This action filled chapter was both exciting and realistic. Some escape/rescue adventures can seem unreal, because the exploits seem impossible. The actions you describe are indeed possible to someone with the adequate amount of strength, training and determination. This is an exciting and very pleasing chapter. Why does the story have to end ever?

Thank you so much, Nomi, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I've been trying to end this story for three chapters, it just won't let me. LOL. I don't like to keep writing chapter after chapter about the same things, normally. Plus, they have to be posted closer together so people don't forget what happened earlier, and as you know, I don't like to post very often. I'd rather read those of you that I enjoy reading every day. I can't thank you enough, my friend, and I don't make friends easily. Your character and encouragement have shined like a blazing star since day one of meeting you. I appreciate YOU!

The feeling and sentiment is equal. I admire your story telling skill, which by the way are impeccable. Please continue the excellent work.

Wow! Tucker is a bad mother (shut your mouth) LOL! Talk about a one-man wrecking ball. He took on the kidnappers with no mercy. I really loved this chapter, Ric. I think Tucker needs a book two.

Thank you so much, Amahra, for your extra special six-star review and kind words. I don't like to write books, just short, short stories about different subjects. LOL. I've been trying to end this one for three chapters, it just won't let me. I'm just thankful that you talented writers can keep sitting still for more of my foolishness. I appreciate YOU!
