Does Your Mother Know? - Softcover

She blends the professional and personal in deft, balanced fashion, brings her murderous plotting to a reasonable if not entirely unexpected conclusion, and along the way makes both the geography and the people vividly real. ... Does Your Mother Know? is a page-turning introduction to Christine Morris in the 21st.

(Joan Barfoot The London Free Press)

Jennings' tale is a clever, progressively complex one.

(Mike Gillespie The Ottawa Citizen)

What Jennings does best is characterization and the people of Stornoway ... come off here as real folks with real feelings and problems. Morris herself has the makings of a good continuing main character.

... the writing is easy, light, wryly humorous. The action is quick-paced, the plot just complex enough.

(Joanne Sasvari The Calgary Herald)

Jennings makes the most of Morris's conflicted history and current dilemma. As always, she's brilliant at the small details that give a setting life, and a dollop of potential romance with a handsome Scottish cop works nicely.

(Margaret Cannon The Globe and Mail)

... the sense of place and how that setting is integrated into each character's soul is Jennings at her best.

(The Hamilton Spectator)
