After a disastrous car crash outside New York City, Ridley Duchannes—Dark Caster, Siren, and bona fide bad girl-has gone missing. Her wannabe rocker and quarter Incubus boyfriend, Wesley "Link" Lincoln, was driving, and when he comes to, Ridley is nowhere to be found. The only clue is the giant raven emblazoned on the hood of the truck that hit them, which can mean only one thing: Silas Ravenwood is back. And he has Ridley.
Determined to find her, Link reunites with old friends John Breed and Liv Durand, his New York bandmates, and the mysterious Lennox Gates—who has his own reasons for tracking down Ridley. Together they travel through the Caster Tunnels and the Deep South to New Orleans, where they uncover the truth about the infamous Ravenwood labs and exactly what Silas has been doing within those walls. By the time Link and his friends reach Ridley, she is no longer the Siren they know and love. She's something new. This time, love might not be enough to save them.
In this sequel to Dangerous Creatures, the bestselling spin-off of the #1 New York Times bestselling Beautiful Creatures novels, coauthors Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl deliver an intoxicating blend of magic, suspense, and danger.

Grades 8-12 Fans craving more stories of Casters, Mortals, and Darkborn will relish this series entry from the creators of Beautiful Creatures. Ridley Duchannes and her boyfriend, Wesley Link Lincoln, are on the run, having survived the fire at Lennox Gates' New York nightclub. They don't get far before Ridley, a powerful Siren, is captured by the evil Silas Ravenwood. Desperate to rescue her, Link needs allies, and he pulls together a team that includes his bandmates; old friends from Gatlin; and Gates, who has his own reasons for helping to find Ridley. As in the previous books, the point of view switches from character to character, giving readers insight into Lennox's doomed love; Ridley's hopelessness and newfound power, even while trapped in Ravenwood's dungeon; and Link's quest to find trustworthy companions. Readers new to the Caster world would be better off starting with Dangerous Creatures (2014) or titles in the Beautiful Creatures series, as Dangerous Deception is chock-full of characters, alliances, and antagonisms that might not make much sense to newbies.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
