If a series such as this is to end, then it is a good idea to end on a great story; that is exactly what we have here! Mystery, atmosphere and a brooding main character. Superb, Cryssa, just superb. And I would echo Jean's comment above (and, thank you Jean for being such a stalwart supporter!) and thank all the writers, all the commentees and all the readers but especially Helen for bringing all this together so perfectly - and this for the third time! Someone earlier mentioned the possibility of a book? must be almost 100 stories over the three years - I'd be up for that ...Richard Tearlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13593521217135620570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4804142297590807485.post-78722657237846010092019-12-30T09:35:24.900+01:002019-12-30T09:35:24.900+01:00Loved the evocation of place and the river running...Loved the evocation of place and the river running through it. Great song connection and interesting to read Helen's comments on the Lea, which I don't know at all. Rivers do have personalities! I was transported to the slate and greyness of North Wales, straight away and the suspense builds up so that I was waiting for a tragic end - yet to come :) Many thanks to Helen and all the (other) writers for what has become an enjoyable daily ritual for me. I've discovered new writers, bought some books and will miss my daily story. Happy New Year everyone and may 2020 bring us all great books!Jean Gillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423822543543008594noreply@blogger.com
