Thank you for posting chapter 3. I am really looking forward to each chapter of this story. However, as I reach the end of each one, I have the same reaction, "More, please."

Now that we've established that Eric can't trust random strangers or the police, and he'd be in danger and probably endangering others going back to Ruthy's house, he's going to have to do something VERY drastic to rescue himself, the baby, and Ruthy. You've done a good job of setting the stage for whatever comes next. Please don't make us wait too long to find out what it is.
