This book follows Alex and Darla six months later. They set out to find Alex’s parents, but in the meantime much harm comes to them, so much so they are even separated. Can Alex survive without Darla, who…let’s be honest…is the ‘brains’ of the two? Can Darla hold her own with the flensers? Two other characters are also brought into this book that help the story, one of them being Ben. He is super likeable and fun to follow with his tendencies.
