      Finley, Griffin, and the rest of the gang are back in England after their American adventures in the second book. Naturally, there’s trouble on the horizon as The Machinist is still around and causing trouble. I love how this book focuses a bit more on Emily without deviating from the other characters. Emily’s story comes to the forefront as she’s kidnapped by some bad automatons. We get her backstory without slowing the narrative. Smooth transitions such as this make all of Kady Cross’s books assessable and easy to read. Another thing to love is the growth of the characters. With the exception of Jasper who was absent for much of the book, each character learns something new about their limitations or lack there of. I don’t deny my love for all things Griffin and really enjoy where his story is heading. Finley has experiences the most growth. By the third book, she knows who she is and what she wants. Most surprising is Jack Dandy. I can’t wait to read more about him. If you’re looking for something paranormal, but you’re tired of the same old thing, pick this series up. The books are a lot of fun.
