After roughly 40% of the book, the plot became increasingly predictable, making my overall reading experience unmemorable. Nevertheless, it served well as a follow-up to the first book, with the Bayview Four remaining involved and drawing on some elements from the previous book for inspiration, though these elements did not constitute the full weight of the narrative. Ultimately, this allowed the story to stand alone, and notably provide substantial character development for the new protagonists.
