This is a well-written chapter which nicely moves along the plot and sets the scene for Troy leaving his parents - perhaps vulnerable - to an angry husband. I hope I'm wrong. Best wishes, Bev

A very good chapter. No SNAGS. It kept the story moving forward. I honestly can't suggest any changes at this time. I feel it was well written.

I love that you added in the author notes about why abused women don't leave. It seems like a such a simple decision for someone who has never been in such a situation. The "remember" part is breath-taking. You'll never know how many lives you've saved and helped.
I hope the PI has some luck in finding Anna and her son.

Thank you for your kind review and support. I have had people ask me why the women just don't leave, this prompted my author's notes.

I am very curious as to the where-a-bouts of young Anna, who seems to have eluded all the authorities in her attempts to remain hidden But why....

Wow, what a wonderful first time introduction to your work. The characters leap off the page and I felt immediately transported into their lives. You are addressing a serious and important issue in a way that from what I have read is so beautifully crafted it becomes immediately accessible to any audiience. Although I am fortunate enough to have never been touched by domestic abuse some who are close to me have and I am aware how confusing terrifying and terrible it can be. The fact that you give information in you author notes speaks volumes about your desire to give support and is a huge credit to you. A sincere and genuine and extremely well written insight into a part of life that can often remain hidden. Congratulations x

Barbara - another great post. A little bit different in this story and quite enjoyable is the dynamics within Troy's family. I could just picture Paul at the graduation. Well written with great pace. Bill

It seems I've stepped into your story some where in the middle. You write very well. For the reader the words flow very well - simple and easy.I feel I was a guest at the breakfast table while reading this. Cheers! Jerry

Dear Barbara, I have just read part 4 of this chapter from your book and have really enjoyed it. You write so beautifully. I can feel and see your characters as if they are real and that is what I look for in a book. Also, coming from a very traumatic marriage,which is over now thank goodness, I can relate to your book. Thank you for sharing and have a good day. Warm regards, Cynthia.

The scene and conversation sounds true and moves the story along. You allow the reader to feel like they are there with the characters. I didn't see any mistakes or things that didn't sound right. Good work
