Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

[Bigheart]

The whole truth has not come out yet.

However, here is what we know from Chapter 35 of "Looking for Answers"

Then he read the report.  It did not contain photographs, which made it still incomplete, but nonetheless there were toxicology reports.  No sign of sexual activity, no drugs in his system, no signs of a struggle, no bruises.  He read quickly, scanning for the thing he needed so badly to know.  Massive injury to the back of the skull, caused by large blunt object.  A wrench, a hammer... something.  Not a facial, jaw, or neck injury.

Zucchini11 called it, and gets the "false confession" award.  Now I would have thought you guys would be on the alert since the false confession of John Mark Karr on the JonBenet Ramsey case.

Too bad those readers who decided to stop reading didn't wait for the rest of the story.

You got me too Louise!!
I have such a lousy memory   
Yep! Too bad indeed

Well, it has begun to happen... the Lori Trickle Down Fan Effect... I have gotten LJ and email notices from several people who, taking her recommendation, have seized on the Laramie Saga like hungry dogs on fresh meat, and a couple of them have swallowed it whole, reading night and day...!  I had expected there might be an actual Lori effect, but to see it in action is really quite amazing.  New fans have begun to surface, and lurkers who may have been there all along are just catching up.

I also had a wonderful chat with one of our moderators here, Lynne, who just added herself to the E&E fan list, who has some contacts in the publishing industry and recently ordered my original novel "The Erotic Etudes" from Amazon.  "The Erotic Etudes" can be found with several of my original novels on my website: www.zebratta.com, and can also be ordered from there for those with a Paypal account.  This book contains what I have held to be my best-written sex scene of all, and is about the youthful love affairs of the bisexual composer, Robert Schumann.  I published it in October 2005.  for those who are wondering what to do while I am busy between writing chapters, you may be interested to read some of my original works, the most accessible of which, in my opinion, is "The Erotic Etudes."

Before I turn in for the night, one more pic ..
I am keeping the promise I made on Louise's LJ, Chapter 28: Lightning Strikes Twice ..

Oh Lucise!!!
You did it AGAIN! This is SO lovely.....
Aw, the R.I.P. one on Louise's LJ was heartbreakingly beautiful. Sure did make me cry...

I am also going to order "The Erotic Etudes", that's something I could do in support of Louise's writing career after she gives us the LS.

After wondering for many months about the circumstances surrounding Jack's death, reading Louise's description has relieved my distress and anxiety.  It has given me closure.  I hope it does the same for Ennis.

Update to "The Long Way Home"

I agree.

I know Ellery is debating with himself what exactly he should tell Ennis, but I don't think that there is anything that he needs to conceal.

I know any details are going to hurt (like hell, and Ellery doesn't ahve to be too graphic), but at least Ennis will know that Jack didn't have 'relations' with Worrell, and that he was killed just because Worrell was nuts. It has to be better than what he believes at the moment, that Jack was getting it on with this guy. It will also lift the spectre of the threat of AIDS too.

Breathlessly awaiting the next gripping installment.

This is really very gratifying to hear, particularly after all of the comments about "disrespecting Jack" I have read over the past ten days or so.
