Tony,
So... those rings came in handy after all. *smile* But I'm afraid our guy jumped from one pickle (a pseudo-engagement) into another (being chased by bad guys?).
This gets interestinger and interestinger. hahaha
Thanks!

Thanks, Robyn. There's never a dull moment. At least, that's what all the books on novel writing advise me. LOL
I'm expecting things to get even inerestinger as we near the climax.
All good wishes, Tony.

Are they in danger? Who would know that they are there on a mission?
I'm curious now about Rasheed. Is he more than merely a taxi driver?
The excitement has begun.

Thanks, Ellen. There certainly seems to be something more to Rasheed than meets the eye. And the black sedan - goodness knows where that came from - sure as heck, I don't! LOL

Tony, this is wonderfully written and the description of her appearance is amazing. It reminds me of Margaret's writing which I miss. Beautiful work, my friend~Debbie

Very many thanks, Geoffrey, both for your generous comments and for your generous stars. A welcome sparkle to brighten a dull winter's day!
Comment from Brenda Henderson
Way to really drive the narrative. This chapter remains true to the previous installments while continuing to draw your readers into the intrigue of both the plot line and the exotic locale. The characters are well developed and have real purpose in propelling the story forward. Well crafted!

I like the clever way leave the ending of episodes with a thirst denying situation Tony, keeping your readers interested and curiosity charged for the next one. Your writing is high quality with the skilled use of language, and a very mobile plot, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from Gail Denham
Wow - a cliff hanger - and what's next. Again a very readable chapter with the events flowing smoothly - enjoyed this. And sounds quite plausible. Good job.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written chapter, luckily, the two spies survived the explosive at the market and heading back to their hotel thanks to the taxi driver who did not left them to do aso they wish, but there is someone following them.

The fat's in the fire now. Maybe they shouldn't have run. The way he keeps popping up, maybe it's Bamforth in the car. 8-)
Great description of Helen's dance and clothing. Almost like being there.

Thanks, Yvonne. Glad you found the descriptions realistic! Now that things are getting going at last, I hope I can maintain the impetus! All the best, Tony
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I hope Rasheed hasn't trapped Charles and Helen!! What an exciting chapter, Tony. We start off with Helen in her 'wedding dress' to the consternation of Charles, LOL, and then a bombing, and now, either an abduction or, Rasheed will now drive like a bat out of hell and get them away from whoever is following him! Can't wait to find out! Well done, my friend, superb chapter. I'm not worried about waiting to give you a six this time, you always deserve one, but I know you will be posting another chapter very soon. :)) Sandra xxx

Thanks, Sandra. The pace is certainly hotting up. I hope I can sustain it! There may be a slight pause while I work out how the heck that black car fits into the story! LOL

That sounds like me, I'm often ending a part not knowing what the heck the next part it going to be like. Makes life exciting, doesn't it? lol.
-
That sounds familiar, Tony, I often have no idea how the next part will go. lol.
