Year of Blood #4
Frankie Graves Part Two
Twenty-three years have passed since Frankie Graves' Fourth of July killing spree. Those who lived through it would like to leave Frankie and their terrible memories buried in the past. But Frankie's awake again, and this time he has a new plan. He's hiding in plain sight among Hartfield's punk rock teenagers, and only the few survivors from the '50s have any idea just how dangerous he really is.
Will they be able to unravel the mystery around Frankie and stop him for good, or will Fourth of July, 1981, turn out to be a terrifying repeat of the past?
Frankie Graves Part Two mixes all the bloody fun of an '80s slasher movie with the rock'n'roll greaser style of the '50s. Slasher fans rejoice, old school horror is back!

3.5 Stars
Video Review: https://youtu.be/KevK8OjtjgQ
This is an entertaining conclusion to this slasher duology. I particularly love thos narrative structure of these which smashes together the 1980s with the 1950s.
My newer preferences for literary fiction holds this back from being a five star read, but I have no criticisms of this work outside of my preference for more literary pieces. This author clearly set out to make a fun slasher story and has succeeded in those goals.
This duology is a great place to start for readers who want to try this author's work.

YUP… I KNEW IT!
I’m glad I chose to give Part One a 5 star rating because you really have to read both books as a whole to enjoy the narrative. Part Two is more fast-paced and exciting but you needed the back story to get there.
All I will say at this point is that Cameron NEEDS to put out more Year of Blood stories and more books in general because his output is just so much fun! At the end of Frankie Graves Part Two, he hinted that a Halloween book was in the works… I can’t wait!!!

Frankie Graves Lives, well sort of
Frankie Graves has escaped his watery grave and is out for revenge. This is a great follow up to the first Frankie Graves novel. Full of suspense and scares.

Good, but the ending had a few back-to-back conveniences that raised the disbelief factor a bit.
