Foxglove introduces new characters, a new mystery, and more in a sequel that greatly expands on the world of its predecessor.
a was one part lush romance, one part murder mystery, and one part coming-of-age tale. A book that, when taken together, was much more than the sum of its pieces and its genre-mixing story was satisfying, captivating, and swoon-worthy by turns. So, coming up with a sequel for it was never going to be easy.
In the second novel, Signa’s growth is apparent. She’s more sure of herself, and what she wants than ever before and she’s willing to make both hard decisions and real sacrifices in the name of those she loves. Butis a sequel that shakes things up in more ways than one.
We’re also introduced to Fate, brother of Death and master of the tapestry that controls the events in everyone’s lives and the opposite of his brother in almost every way. He is capable of being seen by the living for one and existing in the real world when he chooses. He’s golden and warm where Death is shadowy and cold, and seems capable of essentially bending reality to his will whenever it’s convenient.
Signa, for her part, is determined to solve the murder that closed the first book—and put Blythe’s father, Elijah Hawthorne, in jail. She remains wracked with guilt over her role in Hawthorne son Percy’s death inand desperately wants to make things up to the people she now considers her family, particularly to Blythe, who still misses her brother fiercely.
Perhaps it’s due to the fact that Fate’s interactions with Signa often carry a whiff of manipulation or gaslighting, but the character is much more enjoyable when he interacts with others. His quick-witted sparring with Blythe is particularly fun—I’m always a sucker for a “two people who ostensibly hate each other kind of flirting” dynamic—and the complicated history he shares with his brother adds a welcome tension to all their scenes together.
