Review: Ongoing Intrigue
Rating: 3 out of 5

Episode two starts quickly and I am surprised to find that I am neither bogged down with backstory or finding the usual lag that occurs in most second books. I was also delighted to find that getting the sisters to believe in vampires was a quick and surprisingly believable task - nice work Frater!So much work goes into episode two to set up for the rest of the series, yet there was no feel of this being merely a bridging book to get the reader from point A to point B. The author craftily builds up both suspense and anticipation in the reader.At one point I was finding the use of a cross by one vampire and not by others a little unbelievable, then, towards the end of this episode, the author neatly ties up that little conundrum for me. Although there other points in this episode where I do feel it is all a bit too easy for the new vampire family.Overall, this episode helps us understand the journey being made by the now vampire siblings.
