Goodreads Synopsis:

The children of the Grace Field House orphanage must escape a macabre fate before it’s too late.

Life at Grace Field House is good for Emma and her fellow orphans. While the daily studying and exams they have to take are tough, their loving caretaker provides them with delicious food and plenty of playtime. But perhaps not everything is as it seems…

The battle for survival at Goldy Pond continues as Emma and the other children face off against even more devilish foes. They’ll have to work together and execute the perfect plan, but will it be enough against the most powerful demon they’ve ever met?

Review:

The kids planned very thoroughly, but something always goes wrong anyway. The demons are tough opponents, especially against children, and it's a very dangerous game they're playing.
Emma does well with stalling the main demon, but that's largely because he finds all of this amusing and wants a real challenge, so he wants to see what they have planned. Emma doesn't know what's going on out in the woods, she doesn't know how their plans are working out, and only has to wait and hope they show up when they're supposed to. All leading to a surprise cliffhanger.
I just want to read the next one and see where it goes next.
