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…

Review:

The surprise reunion takes Leuvis off guard, which is what they needed right then. Though it comes with a serious worry at one point, they continue their fight because they know this is their only real chance. Second chances don't really come when you're fighting a monster.
I'm quite impressed with how the goldy pond arc wraps up. It came with a few surprises I didn't expect, some real worries for a moment there that I won't spoil. Now it seems like the kids have to backtrack given their new information, plus there's the whole Norman thing Emma and Ray don't know about, plus I'm not sure how they're going to find out about it.
This series throws in so many surprises, and doesn't let any plot really stagnate, which I appreciate and admire. I'm unsure what's going to happen next, but I'm excited for it. This is definitely one of the best series out right now.
