While Archie, Susan, Henry and Claire puzzle out the connection between the recent murders and Gretchen's confession to her first ever killing, Pearl, the teenager who tasered Archie in - another book, can't remember which, is back and in danger. Through the ever-gullible Susan, Gretchen wants Archie to find her copycat and stop him - but of course there's more to her madness. Someone is copying her trademark psycho-killings and giving her a bad rep in the process. The final chapter was still ridiculous, though, however much the reader suspends their disbelief.Īfter the respite of the previous instalment, Gretchen is back - and she's not alone. Giving her a bit of a backstory, albeit one from a soap opera, possibly helped. I am officially addicted, but there's only one book left in the series! I don't even mind Gretchen now, even if her frequent Houdini-like escape acts from maximum security facilities are getting a bit tired.
