SYNOPSIS:
Olivia Taylor-Jones is living the life of a socialite but at the drop of a hat finds out she is not only adopted, but her biological parents are serial killers. With the rug ripped out from underneath her - Olivia escapes Chicago to escape the tabloids and finds herself in Cainsville.
REVIEW:
This was a slow start for me, but half way through the book the ball starts rolling and I couldn’t put this book down. Seeing Olivia figure out who she is, and try to uncover whether or not she believes her parents are serial killers was SUCH a journey. All the welsh fairy culture looming in the background was interesting and i hope to see how that intertwines with this story in the rest of the series. This was such a good mystery and i actually liked how all my questions weren’t answered at the end of this book, it just makes me more excited to read the next one!
