What this book is about
The second Anna Dressed in Blood novel follows Cas Lowood's obsessive search for Anna, who sacrificed herself to pull a demon into Hell. The ghost-hunting action is significant; Blake writes YA paranormal horror with genuine atmosphere and character depth. The violence is more graphic than standard YA; Cas's mission takes him somewhere very dark. For mature YA readers of the series.
