This sequel picks up right where THE INNOCENTS leaves off and is filled with all of the mystery, romance, drama and unanswered questions that readers enjoyed about book one.

Things between Alice and Tommy heat up only to be tested when Patrick rolls into town. Then there's tall, dark and broodish bad boy Jude and Charlie's hot mess of a relationship that Cybil can't seem to stay out of and Camilla is still haunting people's dreams. Toss in a few new faces, some teenage binge drinking, a few colorful drugs and a splash of sexual experimentation and The Innocents don't look so innocent after all. *raises brow*

The questions surrounding Camilla's death are answered, sort of, as are the ones involving her mother, father and Tommy's doctor Dad, sort of. But never fear, there is still plenty to keep Nancy Drew wannabe Alice busy. She has her heart set on vengeance and fans of this series will want to find out if she gets it.
