Sequel to New York Times bestselling author Alison Goodman's acclaimed The Dark Days Club-a smashing combination of Buffy and Jane Austen!
Summer, 1812.
After the scandalous events at her presentation ball in London, Lady Helen has taken refuge at the fashionable seaside resort of Brighton, banished from her family and training as a Reclaimer with the covert Dark Days Club. She must learn to fight the dangerous energy-wielding Deceivers and prepare to face their master, the elusive Grand Deceiver.
As she struggles to put aside her genteel upbringing, Helen realizes that her mentor, Lord Carlston, is fighting his own inner battle. Has the foul Deceiver energy poisoned his soul, or is something else driving him towards violent bouts of madness? Either way, Helen is desperate to help the man with whom she shares a deep but forbidden connection.
When Mr. Pike, the hard bureaucratic heart of the Dark Days Club, arrives in Brighton, he has a secret mission for Helen: find the journal left by a mad rogue Reclaimer, before it falls into the hands of the Deceivers. Coerced by Pike, Helen has no choice but to do as ordered, knowing that the search for the journal may bring about Lord Carlston's annihilation.

After finishing this book I was very, very pissed. And agitated. Don't get me wrong, I love our main character Helen, I love Lord Carlston and Darby. But there is this one character that just has NO PURPOSE AT ALL, namely the Duke of Selburn. I hope he rots in hell and stops putting his nose into things that just don't concern him.
Okay, change of topic. The writing was superb, as is usual, and once again it is clear how much effort Alison Goodman put into her research. The pacing in this book was a little bit off, though, the beginning was quite slow.
There is a smidge more romance in this installment and I was craving every second of it. I NEED MORE! And I also need the third book right now 'cause that ending set me off like a rocket. I'm filled with rage again just thinking about that ending. Goddamn him!
