Subject: Oh yes, I totally agree. That is one brutal chapter. Quite an introduction to Casey's old buddy, too.
In reply to: Carla 's message, "I found the second of today's chapters much harder to read than the first. I felt Pamela's actions regarding Love were justified and really, the only way to ensure she and Casey would be safe. And I think Father Kevin came to accept that the only true way to stop Love was with his death as he gave her the information she needed to put an end to Love. To be honest, I have only ever been able to read "Scotsman's Lament" once, when Cindy sent it to me before the book was published. Robin's callous and casual cruelty just took my breath away and literally made me feel sick to my stomach. While I don't believe the British troops had any place in NI and while they certainly perpetrated their share of cruel acts, nobody deserves what happened to those men, especially not the way Robin tortured Sandy." on 06:13:11 08/05/09 Wed

  • I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before this chapter was based on real events, where three Scots soldiers were killed exactly this way- well obviously I don't know if anyone was made to sing or anything and the fight was my own imaginings, but the rest was pretty much exactly how it happened.
