Resumen del Editor

The exciting fourth novel in best-selling author Kelley Armstrong's "impossible-to-put-down" Cainsville series.

When Olivia's life exploded - after she found out she was not the adopted child of a privileged Chicago family but of a notorious pair of convicted serial killers - she found a refuge in the secluded but oddly welcoming town of Cainsville, Illinois. Working with Gabriel Walsh, a fiendishly successful criminal lawyer with links to the town, she discovered the truth about her parents' crimes in an investigation that also revealed the darker forces at work in the place that had offered her a haven. As if that wasn't enough, she also found out that she, Gabriel, and her biker boyfriend Ricky were not caught in an ordinary sort of love triangle, but were hereditary actors in an ancient drama in which the elders of Cainsville and the mysterious Huntsmen who opposed them had a huge stake.

Now someone is killing street kids in the city, and the police have tied Ricky to the crimes. Setting out with Gabriel's help to clear Ricky's name, Olivia once again finds her own life at risk. Soon the three are tangled in a web of betrayals that threatens their uneasy equilibrium and is pushing them toward a hard choice: either they fulfill their destinies by trusting each other and staying true to their real bonds, or they succumb to the extraordinary forces trying to win an eternal war by tearing them apart.

new second narrator

I do not like the new secondary narrator at ALL. Otherwise I love the story!!!

Great book, okay narration

I love the Cainsville series, but am disappointed in the audio. I was able to get the ebook from my library so have been doing a lot of simultaneous reading and listening, only to discover that the audio is slightly different than the original book! Mostly it seems to be just small liberties the narrator takes, minute changes that aren’t necessarily detrimental to the overall story. However, in the previous book (Deceptions), I discovered a whole page missing from the narration, and it was pretty important to the story!

Why the 2 different narrators?!

Both are good, don’t get me wrong but.... well the one playing our Heroine mostly is a touch grating. It takes a moment before the annoyance her voice elicits wears off and so each time they switch back and fourth it actually pulls me right out of the damn story!! So frustrating. So unnecessary. Would have been understandable if they’d went with a male voice actor but they didn’t. Which- ok- than why do we need two when the deeper voices woman does a fine job of all characters??? It’s a good story but the switching back and fourth is definitely not helping that story get told. Simple as that.

Loved the story line but ...

I didn’t really like the new narrator Julie McKay. Her voice lacked emotion and there was really no difference in tone with the different characters she read. Will finish the series because I love Kelley Armstrong books. Her story’s never disappoint.

great series

loved the book, but not impressed with the additional narrator. the original reader is soooooo much better!

Great Story

Kelley Armstrong has a way of pulling you into her tales and making you care about her characters.

The voice of Gabriel wasn't good.

The person performing as Gabriel didn't mesh with the others from the previous books. The name pronunciations were different and the reading didn't flow well.

New narrator not so good

The new secondary narrator, Julie MacKay, sounds like a fake computer generated voice. Too bad and thankfully not the primary narrator.
Storyline is great and I really really enjoy Ms Montbertrand. She’s great and speaks naturally and pulls off the frequent humorous parts. If you can get through the narration problems it’s a great continuation of a fascinating storyline.

LOVED IT!

I really enjoyed this story and can't wait to listen to the remaining stories in this series. KELLEY ARMSTRONG sucks you into the story in seconds and you can't stop listening because you have to know what's going to happen next.

I really had trouble with the new narrator. I really don't understand why author's bring in someone new because it messes with the story. Carine Montbertrand began the series and she's done an exceptional job with the characters voices. She doesn't have a problem distinguishing each and every characters personality. You can hear it in their voices when Carine is telling the story.

I'm sure Julie Mckay is a great narrator just not for this series. Her voice was full, without life and it hurt the story a great deal. I found it very difficult to listen to her destroy all the great work Carine has done with the character's voices. You definitely could tell a huge difference between the two narrators.
Message to the author: When we as listeners listen to one narrator do a couple stories from a series we get used to the person. We know and understand the difference between a male and female's narration of character's voices. But when you bring in another narrator that makes it difficult for us to listen, especially when it's a narrator of the same sex. The first narrator has already established their voice and has given each character a personality. She understands the characters. I personally think it's a waste of money to hire the same sex narrators. You only needed the one and Carine brought life to it.

Great Story

Great Storyline. I like the new characters Kelley has introduced in this book. Looking forward to the final chapter.
