Mounting evidence, loving families, expanding support networks! It is all coming together nicely . . . I just hope that there aren't any spanners about to be thrown into the works! 🙂 More please, sir! 😁

@Summerabbacat thank you! Us little Aussie battlers appreciate your support! Eh, @Paladin ???
-
@peter rietbergen I think that last sentence would have to be one of my favourite responses... ever! Thank you!
-
@Summerabbacat oh yes, the stench of corruption is everywhere!

@centexhairysub let's just say there will be links, which will become obvious later on. 😋

-- Chapter Fourteen -- ‘Holy shit! That was close,’ Shane said, as he sat up and looked back through the rear window at the receding view of the hospital and the two slightly bewildered-looking cops on the front steps. The three of us had dived into the back seat of the taxi, with Shane sitting between Helen and me, and I had pushed his head forward and down, while trying to keep him out of sight, despite his initial protests. ‘A bit too close, I reckon,’ Helen added.

-- Chapter Thirteen -- I was woken by the irritating sound of something squeaking, but couldn’t think of what it might be, as I was sure that there was nothing in my unit that would make a noise like that. As I slowly opened my eyes and looked around, I realised, however, that I wasn’t at home; I was somewhere entirely different. It was then that it dawned on me. I wasn’t even in a bed. I was sitting in a chair, in a sterile-looking room, alongside a teenage boy –- who did

Thankyou @Summerabbacat I think perhaps you had best add a couple of boxes of tissues to your next grocery order. You will need some during the next 30-odd chapters! MP

-- Chapter Twelve -- It was immediately obvious that Mrs Jarvis was a no-nonsense kind of woman, which was something that I found I could only admire. It was also obvious that she was a woman who might well be a force to be reckoned with, which I quickly figured she would need to be with a son like Andy Jarvis, and for that reason I knew I would need to respect her. I had no idea just how much she knew about her son’s activities, but I figured she was a smart woman and jud

@Summerabbacat I see you've let your imagination off the leash again! Let's see it stacks up when we get to that point, eh?

@Summerabbacat or perhaps Helby might enjoy a trip out of town for a day or three . . . ?

-- Chapter Eleven -- Almost before we had even exited the front of the hospital both Helen and I had our phones out and were hitting the dial pad. It was time to start the ball rolling, to put our plans into motion, which would culminate in the arrest of Andy Jarvis; assuming, of course, that we had all our ducks lined up in a row and the inspector gave us the green light. Once outside the building I listened to the phone ring at the home of Martin’s parents, while I could

-- Chapter Ten -- Fear gripped the both of us as we looked at each other and realised just what it was that may be happening here. A police guard missing from his post. A potential target missing from his hospital bed. Surely Jarvis couldn’t have found him already? Could he? Whichever way we looked at it, we just knew it couldn’t be good. ‘This simply can’t be happening!’ I heard Helen growl, as I stepped back out into the corridor and looked up and

Haha! @Summerabbacat I could send Coop over to investigate that scandal if you would like ... but I fear he may get distracted by Christopher Atkins! 😋

@Summerabbacat you'll just have to read on, McDuff! 😁
-
-- Chapter Nine -- I was still feeling pissed about the events of the morning. Being accused of murder isn’t exactly the best way to start your day, but aside from dealing with my own issues there was still a lot we needed to do today, which Helen reminded me of as we sped through the suburbs. Right now we were on our way to pay a visit to young Jimmy, as we needed to check in and see how he was handling his confinement, as well as talk to him about what Shane had told us from his hosp

@CincyKris hmmmm . . . wild! lol But all will be revealed, I can promise you that! 😁

@Gary L thank you!

Thanks @Summerabbacat I think you will find there will be quite a few confronting chapters as the story continues 😉

-- Chapter Eight -- At the sound of my raised voice the inspector had entered the squad room; just in time to see my breakfast come up. ‘I’m sorry, Rick,’ Helen said to me. ‘But it was a question that had to be asked.’ Pulling my handkerchief from my pocket I managed to wipe my face, as the two of them looked on. ‘Go get yourself cleaned up, Cooper. Then I want the two of you in my office.’ ‘Yes, sir,’ Helen replied, for the both of us. The inspector took one more l

@Summerabbacat that pretty much nailed it! lol
-
@Paladin yes. I have it in a collection of the authors stories.
-
@Summerabbacat thank you for that. I think I need to watch it now ... good, bad or indifferent. As for Brokeback, I have watched it a few times, but it's not a movie that I can say I really enjoyed ... endured might be a better word! LOL
-
@Summerabbacat I haven't seen it, but have read about it, and perhaps guys like us wouldn't find it "politically challenging" or as "shocking" as the mainstream population, is because to us it was "the norm" ... we were actually living it?
