Honestly i was worried about continuing with this series despite the first book being a surprise hit for me. They are really quite dark in tone and frankly the stramy scebes in book one were really bad. 

I am happy to be proven wrong! I would say this book is significantly better than the first in many ways. It has a bit of a slower start but the meat of the story is really hard hitting. 

Im pleasantly surpfised by how different the mmc are. They could easily be clones and instead the author develops them really well.
