Rituals

Olivia Taylor-Jones grew up in a wealthy Chicago family until she learned she was adopted, and that her birth parents are convicted serial killers. Her life collapsed overnight. She left the city for Cainsville, Illinois, a small, secluded town that welcomed her in an odd way.

She could not leave the question of her parents' crimes alone. Her search for answers brought her together with Gabriel Walsh, a criminal lawyer with a record of winning and some ties to Cainsville. Their digging uncovered Celtic mysteries working beneath the town.

Olivia is caught between two men: the calculating Gabriel and her biker boyfriend, Ricky. Her visions show that the three of them are replaying an ancient conflict between the elders of Cainsville and the Huntsmen, with Olivia as the prize.

Rituals is the fifth and final book in the Cainsville series, which blends crime fiction with supernatural lore. Gabriel's mother, an addict he believed dead, returns unexpectedly. Behind the older struggle waits a third force, a malevolent entity that has watched Olivia since infancy and intends to win at any cost.
