In this sequel to City of Villains, Mary Elizabeth is left on her own.  Her three friends have gone into hiding and she is secluded because of the press camping outside her place.  Mary Elizabeth sets out to find her friends and figure out more information about the magic.  She does enlist some assistance because she needs the help.
Opinion
This book is just as good as the first.  Laure did a stand up job continuing the story.  The most fun part for me was playing with each characters name to see if I could come up with what Disney character they were.  This twist of a story is great for any Disney fan but especially for the villians fans.
Many thanks to Net Galley and to Disney Publishing Worldwide for providing me with an ARC of this book.
