Fans of The Gilded Cage cannot miss the sequel!
 Silver Tears is the second installment in Camilla Läckberg's latest series and the revenge is being served up once again.
 Without revealing details that will give away points from the first book, I can say that Silver Tears expands on events we already know of and we learn so much more about protagonist Faye.
 Her abusive ex-husband Jack has escaped from prison, which underscores all of the action in present-day. We are also taken into further detail of Faye/Matilda's youth and the basis of her traumas.
 As with The Gilded Cage, this is a quick and dirty (yup!) read and I can't wait for the third book.
 Recommended!
