I was a little disappointed in this book because I loved The Dark Beneath the Ice so I had really high expectations. I thought Skye was a great character and some of the scares and conflict worked really well. However the sister Deirdre felt a bit like a caricature and the relationship between the sisters didn't feel strong enough considering what was going on. The story also dragged a bit in the middle, but the ending was great.
