This book was even better than the first one I really loved how the mystery came together the ups and downs of the characters relationships and how many of them are affected by the things that went on in the story. I still love the characters so very much but my favorite will always be Cassie she is smart and really cares about the people in her life and is willing to do much to help those she cares for. I like her growing relationship with Dean even with the love triangle with Michael it is clear who she will choose. I liked learning more about the other characters and why they are the way they are I also liked the addition of Sterling she adds the wants to protect the group from themselves even if she ultimately fails but by the end the characters do not want her to leave even if it doesn't start out that way. Now to get into the plot there is a serial killer that is thought to be copying Dean's Dad's methods but it more than that there were many twist and turns looking forward to where the story goes next.
