I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I had gotten the chance to read the first book, The Hiding Girl, which I liked reading dark though it was. That book came with a glimpse of the sequel (this one) and it hooked me so I was very glad that I got a chance to read this to find out what was next in store for Emily Calby. She had a fairly quiet three years with Lucas as her "illegal" guardian before an over reaction brings Emily aka Alice to the attention of the police and she is sent to juvie to await the trial for killing the awful Scott Brooker (from the first book).
Emily is stronger now (and mostly whole) so she puts her mind to it, via the neglected law library in the prison, to find her way out of the mess. I like how she works to help the people she has met in the prison (I love Rebecca!) as well as herself. I did NOT like Leslie and shouted at her several times for the dirty tricks she used.
This was a good story and I am quite satisfied with how it ended. I would not mind finding out if Emily is successful in her chosen future career. After all she is still only 16 years old!
