Tox is hit by a sniper, but it's not someone who wants to kill him. It's an old brother-in-arms who wants to get his attention. He's still feeling guilty about things in his past, and it's threatening to interfere with his relationship with Haven.
Tracking down his friend isn't going to be easy, especially since he has an artifact in his possession. As his friend becomes more unstable, Tox is determined to try and save him. Tox sees many similarities between his friend and himself, affecting his decisions.
As usual, Kendig tells a good story. My one complaint is the interruptions with the glimpses from the past. I know why they're in there, I just don't like them. For me, it's like I'm rafting down a river, and then BAM! I hit a rock. It interrupts the flow of the story, and I've given up reading authors for doing it. Personal preference.
This is a good book, and I did enjoy it. There's another one on the horizon. While I stick with my original opinion that the series is continuous, there were enough reminders in this one that if you hadn't read the first one (or it's been a while), you wouldn't feel lost. Good Book!
