A fun read, worth at least 5 stars, but I'll just give it 7 to be rebellious! Thanks! 😎
Hmmm, yes rushed....
What happen to the other twin? Anything they need to fear?
What happen with all the bad companies? No rewards?

Agree with the commenter who said it felt rushed…still, fun little tale with a bit of bite to it.
One bit of constructive criticism for the author - I know conversational dialogue can be challenging to structure, especially when 2 characters are going back and forth in short bursts, but in this story it was difficult at times to know who was speaking - adding in some identifier when changing speakers doesn’t take much, but can really improve readability.
Cheers!
In honesty, I didn’t love this one. Marcia’s overall reaction to being drugged, bruised up, and left for dead was less intense than when most people, accountants included, get a splinter. While your former cop MC might be a bit more relaxed about this, his sister and BIL should have been at least a little freaked out by acquiring a new assistant who’s the target of an assasination.
Not sure if it's because of all the Australian gibberish, the way the author actually wrote the story or a combination of the two, but I couldn't finish reading it. Either find a good editor or learn better grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc, whether it's Australian, British or American English. 2*
Who'd have ever thunk it? A great story about love among the fish guts. 5 stars!
Lacked emotion. Also, sexual abuse is hardly just a Catholic issue. Protestants had nearly the same rate or were slightly higher. The Catholic Church was low hanging fruit. Anti Catholic Sentiment went hand in hand with the colonization of America. It certainly didn't end after the revolution. The bureaucracy, hierarchy and history of the church is ripe for sensationalized any scandal. Not making excuses. The Catholic Church deserved to take it on the chin. My gripe is less with that and more the pass so many other denominations and religions received due to lazy reporting and ignorant public. Those victims deserve the same respect and compassion.
Enjoyed it but it sure was a big coincidence. Plus some anomalies. Big brother went to little brother and back, for instance. Need a good editor.
