On Dark Shores is a quick read and the start to what I suspect might be a long series. The saga begins in a town with Victorian undertones, with the dirty streets and the hardships shown in all their glory. Each of the characters seems to have made a sacrifice of some sort, with information being fed slowly to the reader. This is not a story for the faint hearted, there is murder, abuse, and a madman loose within the pages. This is a wonderful debut for JA Clement, and I wish her luck as the lives of the characters she's created unfolds in later books.
