I truly loved the way you - finally - solved the mystery surrounding Lily's death and Clark's trouble with the nice Mrs. Donovan.
And the interaction between your major characters (Lois, Clark and Becca) is truly magnificient. You write this little girl so well that I'm hard-pressed to believe that you don't have any children around.
As much as I loved the ending, I'd say it's still open. Fine with me (because I happen to know how glad you are to be done with this story), but I bet there are loads of people who'll be clamoring for just another sequel.
Anyway, this was truly great writing.
