★☆☆☆☆
Anticlimactic and anger inducing
SPOILER ALERT: The book started off with a powerful prologue. It took me straight back to the freedom and deliciousness of childhood. And then BAM, something terrible happens and you continue reading because you must find out what happened to those poor children with whom you just had a wonderful connection. Yes, the new death is interesting-ish and the writing and overall story were adequate, but the ONLY THING I wanted to know was what the heck happened to the first children and you are left with NOTHING. Why the teaser of the speck of blood on the new murder weapeon?! I was so angry when this book ended. In fact, I read this about 6 months ago and I am still angry.
