The brilliant sequel to No. 10 sees Gray, the daughter of the Prime Minister, face new but equally intense challenges. Gray has survived an assassination attempt and is now at a highly secure boarding school, working through her trauma while trying to make new friends, and still keeping safe from would-be assassins. Normal teenager problems mixed with an extreme situation, such as knowing her mother’s would be killers are after her, give Gray nightly panic attacks. Unsurprising.
The school staff reintroduce NIGHT SCHOOL, a self defence class for the highest priority students. Along with Gray is a young man called Dylan, who is surely hiding a secret…
The second in this series is as full of intrigue and suspense as the first. A closed setting packs no less of a punch, and indeed helps build up the tension even more. There are intriguing and interesting new characters to complement the existing ones, and finishes with a huge set piece that does justice to the pace set by the novel.
