Say you could do it all over again – would you? This is the question at the heart of Night School’s sequel as we follow new protagonist Riley Poverly, who is having the absolute worst first day on the job.
Returning to her hometown of Camena after a long absence was hard enough, but before she can begin to make her peace with it, otherworldly interference threatens to tear apart everything she knew. The straight-talking, athletic Riley is joined by creative hiking buddy Jacob, walkie-talkie in hand. The world-saving pair are supported by an eclectic cast that includes their bubbly boss Evelyn, a sailor possessed by New Weird wanderlust, and the local high school’s advice line. They are largely on their own, though, and as a new gang of thinly sketched teens is introduced at the heart of the mystery, we can’t help missing Alex and her friends.
