Wren is trying to cope with the escape of The Bayou Butcher, her attempted murderer. Jeremy quickly is on the hunt again after his near capture in Louisiana and with bodies piling up, Wren is back to work tracking him down.

I really enjoy Wren's attributes and can resonate with a woman whom is strong willed and has difficulty staying still in chaos. She wants the danger to go away and she wants to be the one to make sure it does. The author writes characters to love and even while while Jeremy is fowl, she writes this antagonist to stir a curiosity within the reader. 

I was so engrossed in the first book, The Butcher and the Wren, I was left a tad underwhelmed with the plot of this sequel. Though I still thoroughly enjoyed the book, there was almost too much happening between the different points of view. I hope the third book will delve deeper into the backgrounds of the characters and flesh out some of this missing information.

For my audiobook lovers: I was taken aback by the narrators of this second book. The accent of the detective Wren is friends and works closely with, John, changed from the first, and I was very distracted by this.
