Braith walked out on Sorcha a long time
ago, leaving her with little explanation, and none of it the
truth. Now she has tracked him down in Mexico, and tells him
she needs something of his. Both of them have emotional
scars from the way their relationship ended, but they have
to learn to trust each other again if they expected to both
get out of this new situation alive.
To Catch a Wolf by Colette Denee is an
interesting story that keeps us curious as to exactly which
character is the “bad guy." We are given the identity of the
actual villain, but choices make some others seem just as
villainous. We wonder through much of it if Braith and
Sorcha will ever truly learn to trust each other, and when
they will stop keeping secrets. At the same time, I can’t
say that I really cared whether or not they trusted
each other. I wasn’t sucked into the story the way it
deserved, as too much of it seemed to either be back story
or to take place off-stage. The climax seemed simple and
anti climactic, a big disappointment. I like Ms. Denee’s
imagination, but I feel that with a bit more time, character
development and action, Sorcha and Braith could have had a
wonderful story. |
