Out of Sight, Out of Time by Ally Carter

*** 1/2

The last thing Cammie Morgan remembers is leaving the Gallagher Academy to protect her friends and family from the Circle of Cavan–an ancient terrorist organization that has been hunting her for over a year. But when Cammie wakes up in an alpine convent and discovers months have passed, she must face the fact that her memory is now a black hole. The only traces left of Cammie’s summer vacation are the bruises on her body and dirt under her nails, and all she wants is to go home.
Once she returns to school, however, Cammie realizes that even the Gallagher Academy now holds more questions than answers. Cammie, her friends, and mysterious spy-guy Zach must face their most difficult challenge yet as they travel to the other side of the world, hoping to piece together the clues that Cammie left behind. It’s a race against time. The Circle is hot on their trail and willing stop at nothing to prevent Cammie from remembering what she did last summer.

The Bad:
I really do not have anything bad to say about Out of Sight, Out of Time, except maybe I wish it was longer or that the next book would be out sooner!

The Good:
I truly enjoy the Gallagher Girls series and this installment illustrates a darker side of Cammie.  The stakes are high because Cammie has no idea what happened to her after she left Gallagher Academy at the end of Only the Good Spy Young.  The series has grown and become more intense as the characters get older and face more dangerous scenarios, while keeping the fun adventure that started with I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You.  OOSOOT is an intense, suspenseful ride that you should definitely check out!
