And Cowley knows his men; knows he can count on Doyle's devotion to duty even now, and on Bodie to support him. But oh, oh Patrick ... (I won't say, for fear of accidentally spoiling someone who hasn't read it yet!)

Date: 2015-10-04 03:04 pm (UTC)Now for the vid, I loved the clips of MS being used for Doyle's father - not something that's been done often before! The music was perfect, absolutely perfect. :-)

Date: 2015-10-06 12:12 pm (UTC)I really liked the plot and the way you wove in and out of present and past for both Doyle and Bodie. And, as someone else has already mentioned, the beginning was intriguing and original, really pulling me in. Thanks so much for all your hard work and for a great read!

Date: 2015-10-07 06:44 pm (UTC)The plot is great, and the boys are spot on. And I like it very much when ther are good 'minor characters'.
I really had to grin at "Easy on, old son. Just waiting for Ray to make his move"
The whole scene is brilliant.
But I was a bit sad in the end that Breen had to die... *sigh*
Thank you so much!
"And get a haircut."
