About this ebook

'Cainsville might be a nice place to visit, but I'm too creeped out to live there. Luckily, Armstrong isn't, and her dispatches from this village filled with sinister secrets are going to be keeping her readers up well into the night.' - #1 international bestselling author Linwood Barclay

'One of the best new series debuts this year! With its compelling characters and completely original set up, Omens delivers a powerful combination of suspenseful thrills and supernatural chills. I can't wait to read more!' - New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner

A life shattered in one moment.

Olivia Jones has lived a life of privilege and good fortune. But on the eve of her wedding she discovers two shocking facts. One - she was adopted. Two - her biological parents are notorious serial killers.

A young woman forced on the run.

With her life in immediate danger, Liv must face reality in the most brutal way. But then she is confronted with a tantalising hope - is it possible her parents are innocent?

And the mysterious town that gave her sanctuary. At a price.

Arriving at the remote town of Cainsville, Liv believes she has found the perfect place to hide while she fights to discover the truth. But Cainsville is no ordinary town - and Liv's arrival was no accident...

Gripping, utterly original, sensational new thriller series from international bestseller Kelley Armstrong

Very good book though was waiting for a vampire, witch or a pack of werewolves to emerge. I would read another book to follow on this investigation as you get to know the characters so well from their ways and descriptions. Different for me, though I can do change once and a while. Give it a try.....

I have read all of Ms Armstrong's book and this new one was very well done and very intriguing. I look forward to the next one in the series. Write quickly. :-) Oh and if you do go back to the werewolves I would like to know how the twins got on. Thank you for giving me hours of pleasure.

Forgive me, but I was waiting for a witch or wolf to make an entrance! Despite wishing for the Otherworld I found Cainsville. I'm very much looking forward to seeing what comes next. This was a mystery with a twist and I think I am going to love the new series.
