Rituals

IN THE STUNNING FINALE OF KELLEY ARMSTRONG'S CAPTIVATING CAINSVILLE SERIES, OLIVIA TAYLOR-JONES NOT ONLY HAS TO CONFRONT THE TRUTH ABOUT HER BIRTH PARENTS' CRIMES, BUT THE TRUTH ABOUT WHO SHE REALLY LOVES. AND THERE'S ONE MORE IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE SHE FACES...

When Olivia found out she was not actually the child of a privileged Chicago family, as she was raised to believe, but the daughter of a notorious pair of convicted series killers, her life exploded. Running from the fall-out, she found a refuge in the secluded but oddly welcoming town of Cainsville, Illinois. But she couldn't resist trying to dig out the truth about her birth parents' crimes. She began working with Gabriel Walsh, a fiendishly successful criminal lawyer who also had links to the town; their investigation soon revealed Celtic mysteries at work in Cainsville, and also entangled Olivia in a tense love triangle with the calculating Gabriel and a charming biker, Ricky, the son of one of Gabriel's more questionable clients. Soon, troubling visions revealed to Olivia that the three of them were drawn to each other for deeper reasons than any of them would credit--caught in an ancient drama that pitted the elders of Cainsville against the mysterious Hunstmen with Olivia as the prize.

In this fifth and final novel, not only does Gabriel's drug addict mother--who he thought had died when he was a child--make a surprise reappearance, but Olivia's story takes a final knock-out twist. It turns out that a third supernatural force has been at work all along, a dark and malevolent entity that has had its eye on Olivia since she was a baby and wants to win at any cost.
