The hangman's revolution

After the first book, the setting and characters start out as a bit of a surprise in this one. The characters seem just as confused as the readers, so it's fun. A. few new characters extend the cast and our familiar characters get a little more experience and depth.

The adventures continue, and it is an exciting and dangerous ride. How will the kids outsmart the bad guy(s) this time? What will the repercussions be?

I add a bit of caution to my recommendation- turns out that no one in this series is who they saw they are. Kids with trust issues may find it unsettling.
