A "Salute," our friend! Quite an "awesome" penning here. From the beginning, your story was like a magnetic force to iron, "It pulled Cathy and me in, and would not let go until the end. We enjoyed it immensely. A 2nd "Salute" on your following our novel "Love Long Distance!" It is an honor having an incredible writer such as yourself to express admiration for our work. As always, best wishes in life and God Bless. Respectfully, Cathy (aka) Tootie and Bill (aka) Commando.

Thanks very much for dropping by to review this chapter. Much appreciated. I have a little catching up to do with Love Long Distance but will get back to it. It's a great story. All good wishes, Tony

Bisto is a delight. I'm wondering just how he fits in with these mysterious people. I stick to my guns about Helen. I've always been a bit suspicious of her and Durand, and now Kayla.

Thanks, Yvonne. Glad you're enjoying Bisto. He's a character who is assuming a greater part in the story that I had first planned. All the best, Tony
Comment from Mistydawn
This is another very well-written chapter, a nice addition to your story. I do hope their plan works, that they're able to find Helen soon and they can get their plan back on track. Your last sentence was perfect, made me chuckle.

Thanks very much for bestowing a sixth star on this chapter. I'm delighted that you thought it worthy. Most affirming!
Bisto isn't exactly what you might call 'a new-age man'. Probably the result of attending an all-male private boarding school! LOL
Comment from barbara.wilkey
Bistol is a great character. I really like him. Kayla I don't trust at all. Of course I am still very concerned with Helen. I hope they find her. It does seem as if that is a horrible plan Jeanne has worked up. Once again a good write.

Thanks for your comments, Barbara. I have a feeling it might not all be plain sailing between these characters. I hope the good guy wins! I appreciate the extra star. Most kind! All the best, Tony.
Comment from Pantygynt
Everyone seems to be putting their feet in it. I think that is quite understandable. These women seem to be quite mercurial. I am sure I wouldn't survive long with either Kayla or Helen, but come to think of it I am unlikely even to be given the chance.

Thanks, Jim. I think we might both be out of our depth! I know I would.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
You have my first 6 this week! This part was really intriguing. Poor Charles, he is in a state. Not surprising after all he's been through. Now he must find Helen, quickly. Jeane is in the mix, and we don't want her stirring the ingredients again. I have to say your second paragraph was beautiful. Anyone reading this would know you are a poet. I wish I'd written that. Now that they have upset Kayla, I'm looking forward to the next part. For some reason, you missed the opening and closing speech tags on the paragraph below. Well done. Love this book. :)) Sandra xxx
The French want to use her local knowledge to pinpoint The Lion's position and relay it back. They plan to take him out with a tactical airstrike, along with the consignment.

Thanks so much for this lovely review and glittering starburst! Glad you enjoyed the second paragraph. I must have rewritten and revised it at least a dozen times.
Thanks, too, for noticing the missing inverted commas - now corrected.
All good wishes, Tony.
Comment from Sankey
Well done old mate. Full of Englishisms. Of course, you do originate from "Old Dart" of course. Seems you are first cab off the rank of my favourite writers this afternoon and the SIXES are up as well! No spags.

Thanks, Geoffrey. I seem to have got this chapter posted at the right time of the week for a change! Thanks very much for the review and the sixer. Both much appreciated, as always. Best wishes, Tony

Yeah if you get it on late Sunday our time should catch the SIXES for the week. Late Sunday here is early Sunday USA =SIXES. Our Time Diff for East Coast (I know Central is half hour different) October to April is 16-17-18-19 hours ahead going from East Coast USA to West Coast...then From April to October it is 14-15-16-17 going from East Coast USA. There is that tiny little gap in between the change I think on the end of our Summer DLS before USA goes ON Daylight Saving where there is an hour different to the above right across.

Thanks for the info. Appreciated.
Comment from lyenochka
Great job with the continued telling of this adventure. I like how you present the characters as we really don't know what to expect from the female characters. Hope Kayla will come through and that Mme Durand won't endanger the mission.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
And the intrigue continues, Tony . . . I'm still not sure about Helen. While the info from the discussion seems innocent, I believe there's more to it and JDurand. She seems to know too much and always one step ahead of Charles and the others. This chapter read well. I like the imagery of the scenery from the balcony that night--the valley spread away like sequined velvet spread. . . . Thanks for sharing. Respectfully, Jan
