A worthy sequel to the previous book. Simon’s past comes back to haunt him (in the form of an old flame) and new dark things stalk the city. Romany jump in for a subplot, and the FOG elite versus the rest of the DEA is a big subplot. Partner and relationship problems are a very large focus of the book; at times it’s a little hard to feel sympathetic to Simon given how big a jealous ass he is, but it makes sense given his background.
All in all, a fun read, but I don’t feel compelled to keep reading the series. I’ll call it a successful two books and may keep an eye out for Anton’s other books.
