This second book in the TEEN ALIEN HUNTRESS series, following RED HANDED, is not a direct continuation of
that story. Familiar characters make an appearance, but really this is just another book taking place in that same
well-created world of the first. That said, it's well worth reading, too!
BLACKLISTED is about Camille, who is a pretty average teenage girl. With her best friend, Shanel, she sneaks into a
nightclub, trying to catch the attention of her crush. Camille's persistence, however, leads them into a situation that they
were not anticipating when they came to the club.
Soon, after getting in the middle of a fight in a high security area that isn't really part of the club they came to see, Camille
and Erik are on the run from AIR (Alien Investigation and Removal) agents, while Shanel and Silver manage to elude
them. Erik's finally noticing Camille, so she's inclined to help him out, but the AIR agents are accusing him of something
that she definitely doesn't want to be a part of.
What's a girl to do?
BLACKLISTED is just as action-packed and fast-paced as the first book in the series, and I think the characters might
even be a little better! I love the way Gena Showalter is able to deal with aliens without being cliched or cheesy; her
books are very original, not exactly Star Trek. This is a fun, interesting series that is sure to appeal to readers!!
