Spin on a classic idea. – Kelley Armstrong's Cainsville Files Review

This is a nice spin on a series of books that were available decades ago. They were adventure based and you used dice to battle monsters to keep progressing. No dice needed here just make the right choices to get the full story. Multiple choices means multiple endings and even though I've read one ending I'm not sure if its the only ending. Our heroine is a former Chicago cop who leaves the force and is trying to make a living as a P.I. A case falls her way to find a former boyfriend which leads to a parallel police case to find a serial killer. Add large black hounds with red eyes and Raven guides and this is starting to sound complicated. If you're into games this may not be for you but if you're a reader too you might get a kick out of it. As an avid reader of Kelley's books since her first, 'Broken' this was a must buy. Plus it's a nice peek into the world of Cainsville where her new series of stories are to be set. I gave this four stars due to it being nothing more than an interactive book as opposed to a game, at least not by today's standards. A rethinking of the blurb might be called for. Mind you, if you want a chance to take a stroll through the mind of a NY Times best selling author this is as good a way as any.
