Just as it is starting ot seem like the gang may never learn the real story behind the events that changed their lives forever, a series of clues arrive - kysterious books that seem to predict the future and control the actions of their readers - all of which seems to suggest that April could be very much alive.

Not as good as the first book, but still glad I read it.
