Plot

Violet White sets off in search of the mysterious Redding brothers on a road trip that takes her from Maine to the Appalachian mountains of Virginia, an island off the coast of North Carolina, and a final showdown in the Colorado mountains.

Characters

  • Violet White: teenage girl, protagonist and narrator
  • River West: teenage boy with a mysterious past
  • Luke White: Violet's brother, artist
  • Sunshine Black: Violet's best friend
  • Neely West: River's brother
  • Freddie White: Violet's dead grandmother

Reception

The critical reception for the book has been positive. The School Library Journal reviewer wrote "The lush and polished prose, eerie locales, and pervading sense of dark unease are as engrossing as they were in the first installment." [1] Kirkus Reviews said of the book, "Violet is both intuitive and naïve, capable of profound revelation . . . The faded opulence of the setting is an ideal backdrop for this lushly atmospheric gothic thriller, which, happily, comes with a satisfying conclusion. Darkly romantic and evocative." Kirkus Reviews May 14, 2014. Web. 14 May 2014.</ref>
