I hate it...

what the hell is it with you and pirates of the carribean?

omg! no! don't kill off erik! and vanessa is pregnant with his child!

whoa! carlotta shot erik! vanessa will make her pay.

hmm, erik is getting interested in vanessa...

really vanessa, she's so careless. with carlotta and now erik she's got a death wish that one!

vanessa has it quite wrong. erik isn't afraid of her at all.

the banshee! lol what an excellent name for carlotta. i love the way vanessa handled her.

Beautiful and emotional. You really have a talent for writing. Your characterizations were flawless, and you really know how to write incredible dialog.

I really enjoyed your story. I would have preferred that they would have had longer together and that he'd only been injured, but if not, a child was a good resolution. Any possibilities of a sequel?

Rigor Mortis probably have worn off by the time at which she saw to the body. It only lasts for as long as there is excess Adenosine Tri-phosphate left in the muscles to facilitate muscle contraction (the production of which is ceased as soon as respiration ends). Eventally the body goes limp once more when the muscles begin to decay. (If I'm guessing correctly from the pace at which you laid your story and he was murdured anywhere from two to three days before she saw the body.)

Very good. Will there be any sort of sequel about Vanessa and their child? That would be awesome. ;-)

Loved the story. It was very well-written. Thank you for posting it. :-)

I love myssteries. As I was reading I was thinking what a great idea for a story. I won't do one right away but someday.

A female detective would have her hands full just getting anyone to acknowledge that she could do the 'd have her shingle out for years with not one case unless she got an in with someone. Can't be that guy she had the run in with as he despises her.

Someone had to get her foot in the door on a few cases before anyone would be willing to hire her. Are you going to incorporate a mentor into the story?

I'll look forward to further developement in the case. I might not review every chapter but I'll do my best.

Very good, very good! I look forward to reading more of this story. :D

One thing, though: in earlier chapters, I think you switched back and forth between calling it the Opera Garnier and the Opera Populaire. Just saying it so you know.

Vanessa does push the limits a bit, but without Erik she wouldn't be alive. Her need catch Carlotta nearly made her lose her life. Erik is battling his own demands and she is pushing those invisible buttons. Christine is one of those buttons. More please.
