I really love this. In both stories your characterisation is perfect. This is amazing. I'm reading it for the second time in 24 hours.
I have suggestions for the title of the first one if you still don't have one. You could call it "The Holiday", or just "Holiday", or something cheesy like "Red John's Holiday". So it sounds cheesy and light but it's not.
I would love to see more of this. But thank you for writing a sequel there are so many things that I just love in this story!
