I enjoyed this book more than the first installment. I felt it was more suspenseful and the direction of the plot was clearer. Multiple POVs provided more story content and allowed secondary characters to develop their own dramatic and romantic subplot without interfering with what was happening in the main plotline. That secondary plotline also spiced things up when the action in the main plot lulled and provided space for a bit of humor in an otherwise dark and serious situation. Personally, I found the romance arc in this story WAY more interesting than in One Dark Window. Instead of trying to be stoic all the time, the couple poke at each other verbally and emotionally, which becomes a more realistic connection and a much more entertaining read.
