Riot

Most of what I thought about this sequel is in the other low-star reviews. I expected it to have the same amount of historical-fiction as the first, meaning more references and relevance of crimes to the characters' lives. The actual events (infant killings) were just sprinkled in here and there and by the time there was an actual connection to the plot (almost at the end), I was already over the book and was reading to merely finish. The supernatural element took over and just became absurd. Plus, the cannibalism made my stomach turn. I like her writing style and I think she tells a good tale, though, so I'll read more of her works. I just don't recommend this particular one. Stop after Mayhem.
