Hi there everyone

I'm here to pick your brains. Does anyone recognise this story which I read a very long time ago and just can't find again?

Doyle has been kidnapped and the nasty man has forced him to stand, precariously balanced on a chair, positioned on top of a table, with his hands tied behind his back and a tight noose looped around his neck. If he tires, loses concentration or overbalances then he will hang himself.

In the meantime, Bodie is frantically looking for him and his search takes him to a warehouse where he has to defeat the baddie before he can save Doyle. Injuries abound and I remember Bodie trying to descend the cellar steps leaving a trail of blood behind him.

Does it sound familiar?

ETA Found! Dead Bluff by Linda S Maclaren & Gina Martin. Many thanks.

It's familiar to me only I can't help you with a title unfortunately but I will be watching closely because I'd love to read it again too! There will be some clever clogs out there who will know *g*

Hi! Not so clever, but I've got it! : Dead Bluff, by Linda S Maclaren & Gina Martin.
It's in my pc, don't know where from, and each time I want to read it I remember this part but no more..it's frutrating, because these scenes are so vivid in my mind, that I forget at all the first 2/3 of the story.
So, now, I know it. And now you too.Enjoy it

now you know which fic it is does anyone know where it can be found

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

Ayee! I knew I'd read it at some point!

I've got a dead link to it leading back to Mackie's web page - possibly with a bit of Googling and twiddling on the Wayback Machine you could get to it?

I was so pleased that it was familiar to someone else.

It's been so long since I thought I'd read it that I was beginning to wonder if it was a figment of my imagination.

Oh, well remembered. Thank you.

I'll be off to read it now. It'll be interesting to see if I enjoy it or not because I can't remember if I did the first time.

Luckily, now I have a title, I shoukld be able to find it on my hard drive.

Thanks for the suggestion re the Wayback Machine.
