I enjoyed this 2nd of the book of the series very much. I especially like the fact that it picked up the same story line - so many of the books lately you read the 2nd book in the series and it is about people other than the main characters of the first book....maybe characters of the same family; but the original story is not continuing. Very good story; good developed characters; the story moves well and I enjoyed it. I'm on to book #3.
