Review of 'Hidden' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Yep, 2 in one day. A nice lazy Sunday that had a bit of reading, a bit of gardening and family. Perfect for polishing off some light entertainment.
This one is all locked room (or locked shadow dimension in this case). It inverts the moral conundrum of the previous book and explores how one can react to the 'impossible choice'. There was some neat plotting to deliver the out in this case and I was doing the 'just one more page thing'.
So, continuing to recommend if you like trawling through big urban fantasy series.
