Some Shall Break by Ellie Marney (None Shall Sleep book 2)

 

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read the first book in the series, None Shall Sleep, Stop! I don’t want to ruin the story for you.

“After a harrowingly close contact with juvenile sociopath Simon Gutmunsson, junior FBI consultants Emma Lewis and Travis Bell went their separate ways: Emma rejected her Quantico offer and Travis stayed to train within a new unit of the FBI Behavioral Science division. But the unit’s latest case is feeling eerily familiar and Kristin Gutmunsson—Simon Gutmunsson’s eccentric twin—reaches out to Travis to send a warning: Emma is in peril.

 

When Travis and Kristin turn up evidence that points back to Daniel Huxton, the serial killer that Emma had escaped, things become more complicated. With a copycat on the loose, Emma returns to Quantico and is thrown back into her past traumas. Compelled to prevent more tragedy—even if it means putting herself in danger—Emma turns to Simon for help once again. But Simon is keeping secrets that could impact their entire investigation. Will the team be able to stop the Huxton copycat before time runs out for his next victims?: - taken from Goodreads.

Three months have passed. Travis stayed with the FBI but Emma went back to school in Ohio, that is until a serial killer who targets girls that resemble Emma is active in Pittsburgh. Taken into protective custody by the FBI, Emma finds herself back with not only Travis but Kristin as well. Not one to sit back and watch, soon Emma is drawn into this latest serial murder case and once again turns to Simon for help discovering the culprit. Can this newest serial killer be stopped before he sets his eyes on Emma?.

This book was just as good as the first but I am really hoping there will be a third volume after that ending. I loved the Kate Bush reference. I laughed out loud.
