Devin's prank was a work of art to say the least...and a new, New Year's tradition has been started with the two families. I have to wonder if both fathers are into college basketball and March Madness... As to looking for treasure, they should consider the following...and to note, some believe some of the missing gold is stored in a cave... Confederate gold - Wikipedia

A big truck or a garden shed possibly??? Falling into a swimming pool or a sewer??? Struck by righteous lightning, bonked by baseball sized hail??? Last but not least, a 60-year sentence to a max security prison???

Thank all the freaking deities in heaven... Karl and I waited impatiently while his father called home. I knew when he relaxed that Barry was home; but I knew, Karl would need confirmation. It came when Karl told her, "Keep him there. If Stephanie shows up, don't let her in." Personally, I'm thinking euthanasia....

Late to the party on this, Stephanie is right up there with the pantheon of despicable characters who inhabit your stories, I suspect Karma will find her to deliver her just rewards... I too am curious as to the origin of the deadly fire and loved the courtroom scene!!! Nowe on to the next chapter and wondering how I missed this one!!!!

Thank you for this, the job of any author is to set the hook and reel the reader in, and boy did you do that as you can tell from the various comments from me and others along the way. I very much look forward to the next book knowing all sorts of adventures await our intrepid protagonists... Now, here's a thought, can another magical person like the witch in the swamp see through the new faces???

Personally I hate it when this happens to me... “Looks like it”, he didn’t sound happy, “me bits’ll be left all dangly; I like my support.” Of larger concern is the sources of funding from dubious sources...if you don't make the vig, the knuckle busters and leg breakers just may stop in for a visit....

A very powerful chapter to say the least...At some point Andre should have that conversation with his parents, it closes the loop so to speak! As to Ollie's mother, what can be truly stated...she has more than defined herself and until she seeks the help she so urgently needs, the less said about her, the better...

What mama needs is a blaster shot from close range and then the destruction of all the goutra and other narcotic pills...

At the risk of sounding like a broken record or parroting previous reviews, this tale of policing has just about everything, including bits at the kitchen sink. This story is another fine example of why this story site is one of the best out there for the quality of the stories presented to the reading public. Take a moment, read the other reviews, and get cracking on a tale so intriguing, you'll be binging!!

Thank you for this story, fantastic conception, well done, written, and had me like so many others hooked me from the get-go!!! Only other comment I could make is....mmmmm cake!!!

The comment by CincyKris hits the nail squarely on the head....

Well, not to say the task is daunting, so to speak... I looked at Chronos. “I think my brother can find him if I help him. I found my tether with him again, and he has the closest connection to Mark. It has to work.” “Love is powerful. It is a magic that not even Constructs rule over,” Chronos said. “It could work.”

Dang you @weinerdog, I was sooo gonna use that quote, it's almost like messing with the Squirrel's nuts.... And BTW @Arch Hunter...thank you for gracing these pages with your works!!! Oh, and thank you for your ongoing and overwhelming support. I don't know what I'd do without you guys 🥰. Recent events reminded me that nothing can be taken for granted and to appreciate every single day. I'll do my best to remember it.

Simply can't say it any better, this was a marvelous chapter!!!

Me too...now where do I find that secret key???

Hummm, some interesting informational tidbits are coming to light here, could they possibly be...

I could never get past that the Minister For/From Wanking was a prat of the highest order....When the sequel appears I'm sure somehow, somewhere he just might pop up.... Morris-Walker waited to comment until we were in the basement at the bottom of the stairs leading to the loading level. “I knew our time together would now come to an end, Jamie, but that you will work for Chief-Inspector Mwangi is disappointing.” I chuckled. “Minister, do I detect a hint of jealousy?” He climbed the stairs with more vigour than I’d thought possible after the exhaustion he had displayed a short while earlier. “Maybe I have grown more fond of you during our time together, Jamie, but do not overstretch it.” “Yes, Minister.” Walking behind him, I rolled my eyes. And as @CincyKris so eloquently pointed out the following only reenforces my distain for the arrogant SOB.... I don't think I've ever read a more complete characterization of inherited arrogance. RMW will go to his grave knowing he is justified in all his decisions due to his birthright. This is the attitude that conquered nations in the age colonialism, alive and well in modern times. His type will never change.

Thank you for sharing this with us, poignant, bittersweet, and thoughtful!!!

Treachery be the guile whims of the fairer sex... As to where the boys will end up, I have a guess... "Somewhere far away, at the end of the world, lies Bewitched Land. There, the sun does not rise and the moon does not shine with its glow. It is the dark land of the dreaders. Whoever finds Bewitched Land will find his own death too. Thus not a soul can tell us about this place, gruesome and mean."

I'm stunned that after the small penis comments and the meeting in chambers with Judge Crustypants that no further action or court ordered discipline was forthcoming....could it possibly be that Billy had a new home remedy for the ailment known as stickstuckupyourasssideways??? Other than that, Billy played everything just right, what is the old saw...give a person enough rope, and they will hang themselves??? Attorney Clark clearly isn't the brightest bulb in the legal office storeroom....I suspect the remaining bulbs were missing from that four-pack... Quite frankly @Mattyboy from what I am reading the only folks guilty of malpractice are Attorney Clark and Judge Crustypants... If by some obscure, remote chance Billy loses this case, he wins on appeal...as to Calvin disappearing with the boys in such an event, let's not lose sight that Bryan is more than capable of escaping from Calvin's clutches... Let's not forget that there is a rich history of Diego of caring, loving the boys. Bringing them up in a healthy...stable environment!!! Steve videoing the 'smoking' incident with Caleb in the car is just another tip in the proverbial iceberg...

Well, the old saw that the wheels of justice turn slowly does not apply here!!! Set out some extra bed linen and fluff up a few more pillows!!!

Agree with the comments above, and what became/happened with Arthur???

While running the gauntlet called meet the relatives seemed to work just fine, I wonder about Isobel Bonner, might she be a source of funding for the restoration of the 'artwork"??

Still it would be very interesting to 're-discover' one or two of these wrecks!!!

Understatement of the decade...and proof stupidity reigns supreme... This is getting worse by the moment...
