Hmmm... Maybe I shouldn't review this one.
Your dialogue is natural and easy to read, but you can probably guess what I'm going to say - I really don't see much point in including this.
Reading in short snippets makes it a bit hard to judge, but I think if I picked this up as a book I would be ditching it about now as too slow-moving. Why not get on with the nitty-gritty of the story?

In 60,000 word novels there needs to be some building chapters. That is what this one and the previous and the following chapter will be. There can't be action in every scene. Thank you for the review.

So the search intensifies with an artist sketch. For some reason I think she is staying with the nurse that helped her at the hospital. Ray aka R. K. Alan

Now I know the auburn-haired, button-nose, oval -eyed cutie. Today is my find a good description day. Easy! you did it with no trouble and a novel way of letting us know what the lady looked like.
I do so dislike domestic violence and I'm glad to see you have taken the courage to portray it. Well done, Mr. W. Take a fiver.

I've often wondered how I would describe someone to a sketch artist. Looks like Paul and Troy saw her differently but thank goodness Margaret was able to come up with something similar. I hope they are able to find her soon. Great chapter. Good dialogue and flow.

Hullo Barbara ....
I have often marvelled at the way artists can sketch likenesses to people just from descriptions given by others.
This chapter deals very well with this talent and makes for pleasant reading.
There are just a few small changes to recommend ...
* You have - took a few sips of ice tea ... which I believe should be - of iced-tea (because the tea is not made from ice.)
* You have - I better hurry home ... I suggest - I had better hurry home ...
* You have - and picked up it and her purse. This would read more smoothly as - and picked it up, together with her purse.
Thank you for sharing this with us and I look forward to the next chapter.
Love from ... Nanette Mary.
