Clearly in spite of the tragic beginnings, Troy was blessed with a loving and supportive family. He really turned out to be one of the lucky few. Which makes his character even more sympathetic. As a reader you really care.

Thank you for sticking with my novel. I am honored.

Nice introduction to Margaret, but you should have made it more clear that Margaret is a relative. I thought Margaret was just a friend of Betty's. Otherwise the chapter moved along nicely. I'm still curious about what motivates Troy, but I'm glad he's going after Anna all the same.

Betty entered with a plate full of homemade [what kind?] cookies.
"After all these years[,] you haven't figured out Mom's extra traits either, have you?"

The continuing story of Anna is riveting. I enjoy the way you write, the descriptions, characters, and dialogue. I also appreciate the notes that you provide. The statistics are appalling.
Hope you are feeling better.

Troy's family seems very nice. The home has a friendly warm feeling around it. They don't know where went. They seem determined to help her. Maybe they should let her go. She might be safer if no one knows where she is.

Comment from Nanette Mary
Hullo Barbara ....
This is a relatively short chapter in your book but it makes for interesting reading. There are just a few small changes to recommend ...
* You have - a sip of ice tea .... I suggest - a sip of iced-tea .... (you repeat 'ice tea' further on as well ...)
* You have - his dad ... I suggest - his Dad ....
* You have - happy you could come on such short notice.
The term is usually ... at such short notice ...
* You have - I'm sure you won't mind visiting with these two while I finish in the kitchen .... I suggest - I'm sure you won't mind chatting to these two while I finish ....
I certainly look forward to the next chapter.
Love from ...... Nanette Mary.

I hope the husband doesn't have as many brains as these guys. I think the story is growing nicely and thanks for adding new characters a little at a time.

The casual atmosphere of family having a light drink and eating homemade cookies against the idea of a young mother, who is a victim of abuse gone missing, and the characters who bring out the warm ties through the tone of light banter are all factors that hold the reader's interest from start to finish. The language is simple and flowing and an easy read.So, plot, mood of the scene, convincing characters and short lines of dialogue are all there for the reader to ask for more. Interesting work.
