Claire Voyante's first semester at Henry Hudson High School was eventful, to say the least. As she heads into her second semester, things are calming down a bit. But Claire has a few secrets that are getting harder to keep. Her biggest secret of all? The onyx and ivory cameo necklace her grandmother gave her for her 15th birthday. Ever since she started wearing it, her dreams have been coming to her in black and white and turning out to be oddly prophetic.
Becca’s been hanging out with her old prep school friends and never seems to have time for Claire anymore. And soon, Claire discovers why—there’s a secret group of society girls with a mysterious identity. And, turns out, a mysterious enemy who’s out to get them. The second she sniffs out trouble, Claire jumps on the case. But is it someone close to Claire who’s in danger again—or could it be Claire herself whose life is at stake?

      Gr 8-10-In this sequel to "Dream Girl" (Delacorte, 2008), Claire Voyante, a New York City 10th grader with psychic powers, bemoans her friend Becca's distance while puzzling over the mixed signals sent by Becca's brother, a college freshman. Then she discovers that the new "friends" Becca has been hanging out with are actually members of a semisecret society called the Blue Moon, and Becca convinces them to invite Claire to join. Claire quickly becomes involved in a plot to reinforce the weak, central cable on the Brooklyn Bridge with a plutonium lining. (If the cable were to be replaced by the city, the bridge would lose its landmark status.) The project is imperiled by the theft of the Moons' top-secret pink iPod. The plot is improbable and cluttered with distractions. The many characters are poorly developed and lack consistency. As in "Dream Girl", Claire's psychic powers are almost entirely peripheral to the story. Only for libraries where the first book is popular."Eliza Langhans, Hatfield Public Library, MA"

      In her second book, New York City high school student Claire (Dream Girl) investigates a secret society called the Blue Moons. Her psychic dream visions help her solve a mystery involving the group's apparent hold on bestie Becca. This entertaining story will keep readers guessing until the very end.
