Hunting November

Written by Adriana Mather

Narrated by Cassandra Morris

Surviving a few weeks at the world's most lethal boarding school was one thing. But now comes the real test: Can November Adley find her missing father before her enemies find her? Subterfuge is the name of the game in this thrilling sequel to Killing November, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of How to Hang a Witch.

After surviving a crash course in espionage at the mysterious Academy Absconditi, November has only one purpose: finding her missing father. Along with fellow student (and heartthrob) Ash, November follows the clues that her father left, embarking on the deadliest treasure hunt of her life. The first clue is in her hometown, where old friends beckon and unexpected enemies lurk around every corner. The second clue is in Europe, where revelations about her family's history will plunge her into an international web of deception, lies, and intrigue. The third clue is deep in enemy territory, surrounded by the most skilled assassins and master strategists, and where everyone wants her and her father dead. Can one girl with limited training infiltrate a centuries-old organization that is powerful enough to topple empires? November only knows that she'll do whatever it takes to save her father . . . or die trying.

Reviews for Hunting November

[ftbooklover · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

November and Ash have left Academy Absconditi and are on the run looking for November's dad. He has left November a series of clues to lead her where she needs to go and to the people she needs to see, which offer some surprises along the way, including unexpected help from other students at the Academy.

With November and Ash on the run, Hunting November lends itself to a faster pace than Killing November, which is isolated to the location of the school. The book reminds me so much of a young adult version of the John Wick movies with the Strategia Families, the ruling council, and the rules they all must follow. The plot is a fun ride but a little over the top in terms of violence and drama that sometimes overwhelms the character development. Overall, however, this is an enjoyable story with lots of action and political intrigue making it well worth the read.

teen fiction (suspense, intrigue, spies and assassins).

second and final book, Killing November - a fun series with plenty of twisty backstabby bits.
