Hello delle,

Thanks so much for your replies. Many thanks.

Yes, I could use a little help here. Starting with this.
The title is The Copy Cat Conspiricy, hence no one really knows who's who at this point. How do I keep that a secret, for a while, but convey a strong story to the reader at the same time?

Also, I like detailed technology and missions as well as the psychology the best. Hence, I don't care too much for the sex or violence. Is it possible to employee these things to satisfy myself and not be ditched by the laymen reader? (I don't think so.) I hope to share my interests with others whom also may not be laymans and wish the same or more detail in the areas of these interest.

In addition, I truly like the music surrounding the old scenes. Is there a correct way to implement old or new tunes? This is also something that I think strongly sets the LFN saga apart from other sagas. By the introduction of a familiar melody or tune, the reader recalls past events associated with old memories or builds new ones.

I'm not really a writer as you can see. Hence a Beta Reader is a must.

I just miss them all so much.

I have a hard time reconciling Michael oogling Nikita's legs when Operations and Madeline have been shot in Section. Michael, for me, was always "all business" in a crisis. I'm also uncomfortable with your use of "kinda" in this context... it just doesn't fit. Nikita might think/talk that way, but no one else in Section that I can think of.
