This book was a wild ride! I didn't know what to expect but this wasn't it. I liked that it stayed with the format of slowly revealing the mystery and true to form honestly left me with even more questions. I think the first book was a bit more enjoyable because of Gideon and the challenge setting was simply more interesting than the assassination attempts tbh. But still a very solid continuation and expansion of the world of the locked tomb series.
