Jesus christ, you really are pulling out all the stops aren't you. You're gonna rips us all to shreds before this is over, I can tell. I'll probably hate you before I love you again.
LOL! Denial isn't pretty, is it? "No, really! It's just a series of interconnected one-shots...nothing to see here, folks, move long....oh, fuck it, it's a novel."
Whoa! The beginning where Noah is waiting for his dad, the way he's describing his surroundings and how he felt when he saw Winston. He was disgusted with himself for still caring about him but he thought he could use that to his advantage...he thought.
The way things changed so quick is crazy- but Noah sensed trouble as soon as Jimmy got on the boat, he didn't let his guard down but I don't think even Noah expected that from his father, I mean the man went from talking about how it's important to spend time with your son to having him tied up and tortured.
That scene was awesome loved how you wrote it. Can't wait for more, hope it's soon and um....will there be more Hazard Pay anytime soon? Cause that story is awesome also- just saying.

Sorry for the long wait!
I'm so glad to hear you're not lost. With all the jumps in time and point of view, I was really worried that readers might lose the thread. (It's hard enough keeping track of it myself!)
And I promise much more soul-ripping anguish ahead. ;-)

Oh, Noah. :-(

I think at this point the Colonel is a few crackers short of a box - i.e., extra-special crazy. And he's had a long time to plan.
Too bad Noah didn't jump off the boat when he had the chance.

I have to admit, I scared myself when I was writing that scene - my hands were shaking. Yikes!
And yes, there will be more Hazard Pay soon. For crying out loud, I left the boys in peril!

You are SUCH a compelling writer. Able to leave subtle things and jump in time without letting the reader get lost. Absolutely stunning.
