A dark and twisty sequel that keeps the momentum going
I was a massive fan of the first book in this series so I was buzzing to get my hands on an early copy of this one. D.B. Stephens has delivered another high-stakes story that keeps the tension high from the very first page.
The characters are what really make it and I especially liked getting more background on Sophie's past this time around. It added a lot of depth to her character that we didn't have before. However, I did find myself getting a bit frustrated with the constant back and forth between Sophie and Jess. It felt like it stalled the plot a little in places when I just wanted to get on with it.
One thing that didn't hit as hard for me was that the killings didn't feel quite as personal this time. We weren't as connected to the backstories or the reasons why these specific people were being targeted which took away some of the impact. The ending is also a massive cliffhanger. While it definitely makes me want to see what happens in the next instalment, it's the kind of finish that might leave you feeling a bit impatient!
Overall, it's a very good read and I'm still well and truly hooked on the Secret Vigilante series. It’s fast-paced and has plenty of surprises without ever feeling like it’s trying too hard to be shocking. If you liked the first one, you'll definitely want to pick this up to see where the group goes next.
Thanks to the author, Harper Collins UK, One More Chapter and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of this, the second book in the series.
