Another fine installment to your book. It's such a tough subject, but a totally worthwhile project. Thank you for honoring those who have been abused. Good writing. You draw the reader in and keep them hooked. I want to know what happens next.

Troy parked and waited for his dad, who had parked farther away, to walk up to him. "I doubt Mr. Keller will tell us anything."/Fix this paragraph. If Troy was waiting for his dad to show up, he wouldn't be already talking.----In Author Notes: but I'm sure my mind has been else where and I've missed something./else where s/b elsewhere----Good fortune on the radiation. Last June, I had it too, for prostate cancer. Worked like a charm./Another good chapter inspite of your strife.

It is a good chapter. I like the way you have built the tension and the dread. The characters are growing well. I saw no need for editing.

This was an interesting chapter of the book, called, "Lonely Hearts Meet", to read. It was about Troy and his dad trying to help out Anna and her son Michael.
I enjoyed reading this chapter.

Barbara,
I remember that a volunteer offered to help Anna, but now we wonder what they did. I enjoyed this read and have several suggestions, all involving wordsmithing. I found no nits.
"A little after one o'clock [lunchtime], Paul entered Anna's room and saw the vacant bed." I couldn't tell if the time was afternoon or early morning until I read a bit further.
"I don't know where your son or your wife is for that matter." This seems a bit awkward, since the verb technically should be "are." But I'd write this as, "I don't know where your son is, or your wife for that matter."
"Troy parked and waited for his dad, who had parked farther away, to walk up to him." I don't think you need this level of explanation. I'd say, "Troy parked and watched his dad walk toward him."

You move the story right along. I'm not sure I like where it is going, Bobby is a real jackass and could really hurt this woman and their son. Good piece of story telling.

Another great chapter which I enjoyed reading and reviewing. I have to say, though, that the real high point of this post was the good news in your author's notes. Not only about the beginning of your healing but the fact that your son arrived home safely for a visit. I know that means the world to you. Please tell him I said 'thanks' for all he and his fellow soldiers are doing.
