'Witch Lights' by Michael M. Hughes is the follow up to 'Blackwater Lights.'

Ray Stanton is on the run with Ellen and her son Michael in Guatemala trying to stay one step ahead of Lily and her weird cult. One mistake leads to everything almost being lost. Ellen and Michael find themselves in the care of a dangerous drug lord. Ray finds himself relying on his friend Mantu.

It's a crazy ride that spirals right out of control. I feel like the horror went up a notch with this book and it was a real page turner.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Random House Publishing Group - Hydra, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

I got this as a free ARC from Netgalley and at the time of downloading didn't know it was the second in a series of books. I wish I had known as I could have read Book One first. And really you do need to read it first. The story is pretty much a serial and Witch Lights picks up straight after events of Book 1 so you get no back story and no real character development. It makes the story quite confusing at times as you are expected to know who the key players are.

It's a fast paced story, pretty much a chase, action tale with Ellen on the run with her son and boyfriend Ray and his friend Mantu looking for them. But who are the Brotherhood and the mysterious Lily that the book goes on about so much?? With no reading Book 1 you have to guess.

I quite liked what I did read and I'd like to see how it progresses but hopefully the next one will start with a little bit about what happened previously....
