Your pattern works fine for me. The only thing I can see that might
cause a problem is the quotation marks: you've used the straight ASCII
characters and Writer may have substituted the curly ones.
It may not be necessary, but I would modify it to be flexible about the
number of spaces between sentences: some may already have two spaces,
but that could be hard to pick out by eye.

You may also want to consider that the newer convention is to use only
one space. I stopped using two spaces some time ago, but that's a style
decision that's not universal
