In this sequel to City of Villains by critically acclaimed author,
Estelle Laure, teen detective Mary Elizabeth continues to unravel a dark
conspiracy that has turned her best friend and boyfriend into villainous
monsters--all while battling her own inner demons.
Picking up where City of Villains left off, this sequel finds Mary
Elizabeth reeling from the battle at Miracle Lake in which she watched,
horrified, as her boyfriend James and best friend Ursula turned into
full-fledged, villainous monsters. Now James, Ursula, and Maleficent
have gone underground--and are plotting their revenge. Mary Elizabeth is
determined to find them and bring the truth to light, digging deeper
into the dark underbelly of Monarch City and the history of magic, and
uncovering a conspiracy theory that reaches farther than she could have
imagined. But a city divided by politics and ideologies, a new love
interest, and her own inner demons might just stand in her way.
What are the Villains planning in secret? And is she the next villain to
rise?
This gritty fairy-tale inspired crime series is perfect for readers of
Serena Valentino's Villains series, and TV shows like Riverdale and
Veronica Mars.
