Reviews:
I love the parallel mother/daughter relationship. The knock-knock jokes are a stroke of genius. The author has wonderful symbolism and uses it well throughout. All the "wolf" connections and descriptions are soooo perfect this should be in a lit course to teach symbolism!
A five-star novel. So many elements of suspense are weaved through WOLVES DON'T KNOCK that you feel you can't read and turn the pages fast enough. The many threads left me exhausted by the end...a very good thing. The introspections, often beautifully written, are some of the best passages. Joyce Carol Oates uses intensive character introspections in a lot of her work. She can get away with it because she has the skills to make those introspections fascinating. So does this author.
A spell-binding novel that delves into the mysteries of a traumatized young woman's psyche as she fights to regain a sense of worth. Thumbs up and five stars to this talented author.
What a story! What a read! It reminded me a bit of THE ROOM and a couple of other similar stories. It is engaging though it has difficult themes and elements.
C. A. Mackenzie's extraordinary ability to harness psychological drama compelled me to swiftly turn the pages of WOLVES DON'T KNOCK. MacKenzie's grip is so strong that Miranda's torment became my own. I was unable to rest until the end; exhausted when I did. Without any reservations, I can declare WOLVES DON'T KNOCK a five-star novel. It is, and literary agents should be fighting each other to represent Catherine A. MacKenzie's future works. It would be tragic if WOLVES DON'T KNOCK is undiscovered in Amazon's Slush Pile Mountain. This novel belongs on Amazon's Bestseller List.
