Deadly

Grace Kelly glamour meets The Inheritance Games stakes in this glittering young adult mystery where puzzles, romance and danger shimmer. A sequel to the national bestseller Darkly.

DARKLY ISN’T DONE WITH HER YET. Months after the haunting events of last summer, Arcadia is chasing light—Paris, familiar friends, maybe even closure. But when her old crush Poe vanishes without a trace, her search leads to his ransacked apartment, a stolen Louisiana Veda ghost game, and whispers of a decades-old murder at a legendary Riviera hotel.

As secrets swirl beneath the surface of luxury, Arcadia finds herself drawn into a mystery that blurs the line between myth and truth. The deeper she goes, the more she realizes: The stolen game isn’t just haunted—it’s hiding something. And someone doesn’t want it found.

The twisted mechanics of the Darkly empire have been set in motion again. But this time it is operating against a panorama of evil and conspiracy vaster than Arcadia ever imagined.

Welcome back to the world of Darkly. Where the past is a puzzle, the present is a trap, and the only way out is to play.
