The Abandoned by Rysa Walker

Spoilers for The Abandoned
This was a very solid vignette between the second and third books in the trilogy. I'm embarrassed to say that I missed its release so put off my reading of the third book long enough to enjoy it.
Like Chronos novellas that gave us deeper look at characters beyond Kate, this gives us a lot of background detail on Anna's parents, and Aunt Ro. Ro was teased in the second book so I'm curious how much we'll see of her in the final chapter. There's a really interesting comparison between Anna's life in foster care and the option of being raised by Rowena. If things had gone in that direction, it may have complicated Rowena's liberation as her father would have gone after the money, but there's a certain tragedy to the way it panned out.
Very excited for Book 3!
