This story gets more exciting each time I read a chapter. I'm cheering for the creature who is taking out the abusive men. Your police detective is believable, and the reader is puzzling out the case along with him. There is only one sentence I would change. It's when Clara says, Thank you for being such a gentleman. I don't think she would say that, but it's only my opinion. The rest of the dialogue is excellent. gayla

Thank you, Gayla, for this incredible review, my friend. I am loving this journey and am only halfway through this novel. There's a lot more to come. Thank you, I will look at this part of the dialogue. Happy Thanksgiving!
God bless,

Comment from Jim Wile
Another great chapter, Steve. Dodie Rae and Bay Lynn have got Carey exceedingly confused now with their attempts to throw him off. But now it's getting curiouser and curiouser with the coroner's report of two attackers on Pete Carrington. I think he's about to put it all together, but it will certainly blow his mind to think about his two suspects turning themselves into wolves.
This is a cleverly wrought modern horror story. And I love the revenge theme because justice is being served, albeit in an unconventional but thoroughly appropriate way.

Okay, so there are two other werewolves besides Bay Lynn and Dodie Rae? Holy cow... how many werewolves.... there are more to come?
A very creepy story... I love it. LoL

I love the quote at the end. There are two, Dodie Rae and Bay Lynn. No spoilers for the future, lol. Thank you for the incredible review, my friend.

Comment from Jacob1395
I thought you described Clara's fear really well in this scene and I thought this particularly came through well in her dialogue when she was describing what happened to Officer Carey. Another excellent chapter, Steve, I really enjoyed reading it.

Comment from Ric Myworld
When building a fire, two burners create twice as much heat. And when feeding two wolves filled with vengeance, there needs to be a meaty Shady Maple Pennsylvania Smorgasbord, the largest Amish Smorgasbord in the world. :-) Thanks for sharing.

I thoroughly enjoy your reviews, Ric, and I love the word Smorgasbord. Sorry for the delay, work has been brutal this week.

Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
This is great! he won't crack it, I don't think. But, if he does, I don't think he will want them punished. I doubt he thinks granny is a wolf. Plus I don't think he wants people knowing what he does on his vacation either. Karen

I feel like you're right about Carey. He may end up feeling this is justified, especially later on in the book.
Sorry about the delay and thank you for the beautiful stars, Yound Lady. Work is brutal this time of the year.
God bless,

You are going to have a terrible day on blaick Friday. I am afraid you will have a mix of happy and disgruntled for some time. Best of luck to you. Karen
-
No doubt. Black Friday is a rough day. Thanksgiving will be a rough one as well. Most of the people will be thankful we're open, but some are just miserable folks who want to bitch and moan, lol.
-
You are open on Thanksgiving?
How awful. I understand Asian ad Indian places being open, the don't celebrate. When will you and Mom celebrate? Karen
-
They started opening on Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2017. The only Christmas I've ever missed with my family was due to work, My dad died less than two weeks later with a heart attack. I refuse to work Christmas anymore. So I have to give up Thanksgiving without celebration. I'll be at work from 10-9.

Send Mom over here, we will stuff her with ham and deviled eggs. :-)
-
Yum, I can eat my weight in deviled eggs, lol. She will enjoy Thanksgiving with my two sisters and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Comment from GWHARGIS
Okay, I'm thinking that Officer Carey might start looking the other way once he realizes all of these men are abusive, apart from his partner. The fact that he smiled because the guy "got what he deserved". I liked this because it was a different perspective from Officer Carey. Another great chapter. Gretchen

Yes, I think Carey just may come around. Especially later on in the book. Thank you, Gretchen, for these glorious stars, my friend. Sorry about the delay, work is brutal this time of the year.

Comment from royowen
So now the evidence is piling up concerning the fact that there might be two beasts working almost in collusion with one another, certainly in one of encounters, I must admit I'm on their side, abusers of wives or children, are human, beautifully written Steve, blessings Roy

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That is going to confuse him more now, and I like how he thinks 'At least two of them'. With Dodie locked up, and her grandmother miles away, it couldn't have been them!! I liked how he thought it served that slimeball got what he deserved!! Lol. Well done, my friend, another good chapter. Sandra xx

Comment from barbara.wilkey
So, Carey knows here are two out there. Thak knowledge puts him a little closer to figuring it out. I do like this story.
We both jumped off of the couch, and Marting grabbed me and pushed me in front of him. (Martin)
