It's so rare.<br /><br />Nice twist with the murder and flying back in time.<br /><br />I really enjoyed this. I also liked the fact that Jenny didn't dive head first into all that delicious food. lol.<br />Michael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712353207460785993.post-47702467766344849842012-10-21T21:29:41.060+02:002012-10-21T21:29:41.060+02:00I loved this.

I love that you sparked the beginning of a mystery with this -- either real or just in her head.

So I'm a long time getting to you.<br />I love this twist to your story. So Jack thinks he was murdered does he? So intriguing! And it adds another layer to this plot. I like them time travelling together, but oh the cruelty of Jenny seeing all that food and not being able to partake. <br />She wants to be haunted huh? An unusual concept. But if you're stranded on an island, maybe even a ghost for company is better than no one, eh? <br />I love the way you're getting bolder with your prose. For example, 'With the speed of a film fade-out...' Great imagery. This really livens up a story.<br /><br />So great entry for our Halloween 'fest. I hope you're enjoying reading all the stories as I've been.<br />Happy Halloween! :DDenise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712353207460785993.post-17406201613605367252012-10-21T05:12:25.717+02:002012-10-21T05:12:25.717+02:00And the mysteries deepen; adding a murder, and pos...And the mysteries deepen; adding a murder, and possibly sabotage to the trip.
