This fellow is familiar. I remember reading the story where he stole the knife and other precious stuff and escaped using a glider. I like your no-nonsense style and this thief character, James. Looking forward to part 2.

Yes, he is the same fellow as in The Necklace. Maybe that gal Christi is a bad influence. Thank you, K.C. I'll try to rope in an ending for this tale. : )

I think I remember a previous story this unnamed master thief appeared in. He climbed a tree and entered through the balcony if my memory serves me. I could be wrong. Maybe best I don't know. Great build-up, Ron. Can't wait for part 2.

Intriguing. I'm guessing, NOT a true story?

Yes, not a true story. : ) Only Calcasieu Point, Devil's Elbow Bend, and the Intracoastal Waterway is real.
