A solid sequel, I enjoyed reading more about the original story. Doesn’t have the same mystery/thriller quality as the first book, felt more like a book about people struggling with a side of mystery. The Rachel/Michael storyline was wholly depressing. As always with the author, great writing, easy to get lost in.
