Damn, pretty elaborate scheme for an Indian politician. Usually, they'd just have her meet with an accident during her 'morning walk'. Was a nice setup, but felt very rushed. Could definitely use some more tension during the investigation, and a lot more payoff after they crack the case.

Interesting plot line, but so many loose ends! It is very unlikely that a “master burglar” would leave finger prints, but that aside, what happened to the perpetrators, especially the politician?

It is most often very interesting to read writers from a different culture with different speaking/writing patterns. It adds a dimension to their stories and makes them unique. This was a pleasent story with all the bases covered. Thank you for the pleasent read.

I really enjoyed the confrontation: "do you believe I could do this to you?..." Very powerful!! Full marks for that alone.

He's an idiot. Pure and simple.

Love the story, but you need an editor

Okay, but somewhat confusing,

Not a bad premise but the ESL component prevented the narrative from flowing well. You also rushed through many of the key components of the story. 3*

yeah, this might have been good but it seemed to lack enough to make it feel worth investing in.

It was like the Readers Digest version of a LW story and it felt like a real stretch of a story. Nice idea, just the implementation fell short.

What pretencious assholes, get off your damn ass and make your own damn coffee! Fucking maid! So many damn holes in this it'd sink.

3. A good idea for a story, an interesting premise dealing with a faithful wife made to look faithful, but unfortunately this story moves at breakneck speed with little time spent allowing the plot to grow. Doesn't have to be a novel or anything but I think such an interesting story should be fleshed out.

Decent start...but slow it down so as to ley the story develop.

3 stars for effort...

Wham, Bam thank you mam. Way too short and character development was nonexistent. Fooled into thinking the story would pick up and it went flat. BTRH

Author, why do you erase readers' comments? You know that if I click on the "REPORT" button and send a complaint and e-mail screenshots of the sent comment followed by a captcha, if it is confirmed that the comment you erased does not contain obscene language and insults, your access to the site will be blocked at the IP address. Don't do it again, otherwise I'll get very angry.

I liked it.

What was of it.

There was just to much unwritten.

3 out of 5 from me.

How is this LW?

AND … the premise is silly! And the amount of irrelevant detail is huge.

It would be much easier and painful to simply shoot Sweetie’s knees out

with a sniper rifle!

Good, but needs a lot more detail.

Convoluted and dumb. Plot twist: she installed camera to record her lovers. The confessors did so in exchange for other charges being dropped.

I liked it. It was to the point and it WAS about a loving wife, dipstick.

AnonymousAnonymousover 1 year ago

Couldn’t follow it. Not enough building of the characters, or their motivation.. 2 stars.

So stupid. 1/5

Writing needs work. Bit simplistic but the basic premise was fine. Not sure WHY so many commenters are shitting on it.

AnonymousAnonymous12 months ago

Not worth the read. Between the writing & moreso what happened in the story, I was confused. With a proofreader/ editor, this could've been a better story. 2/5stars

A story about nothing.
