I like this author.  Not quite as gripping as her other books but I didn't know it was a sequel until reading the acknowledgements at the end.

Blahhhh… it had some redeeming qualities but overall it was just a snooze. I thought maybe the ending would get my heart pumping but there was nothing exciting or shocking there. Oh well… still loved The Family Upstairs but this sequel was not needed Lisa
