The tension in this sequel starts high and keeps ratcheting higher, as Victor’s grip on his power starts slipping and the body count starts rising. Five years may have passed since the events of Vicious (2013), the first book in Schwab’s ( A Conjuring of Light, 2017, etc.) Villains series, but her superpowered characters haven’t exactly used that time to relax. She’ll start with her husband, who killed her when she confronted him over his infidelity, but she won’t stop there. Marcella Riggins isn’t the type to take murder lying down, and she’s come back from death with only one thought in her mind: ruin. Meanwhile, a new EO is rising in the town of Merit. Now Victor is racing against time to figure out how to repair the damage death has done to him-and struggling to hold his weird little makeshift family-made up of an ex-con, a former soldier, and a girl who can raise the dead-together even though he’s falling apart.
But for ExtraOrdinary people like Victor, Sydney’s resurrection power comes at a price. Victor Vale has died twice-and it’s not getting any easier.įive years ago, after the bloody battle that ended with Victor dead and his former friend Eli imprisoned, Sydney Clarke used her power to bring Victor back.
