In the book, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, the main character Bree uncovers more secrets about Victoria the mysterious red headed woman that Riley is reporting to. Bree goes on one of her first hunts as well, learning the craft of killing and being unnoticed. She attacks a hooker and her pimp, people who no one would notice if they were gone. While sucking the blood out of the woman she has a sad realization that she does not want to live this way, praying off of lowlifes and drug addicts. Bree also finds out during her hunt about one of Riley's lies, that vampires burn in the sunlight, as she stands in the sun expecting to incinerate, she stays the same. Finding this out Bree decides to keep it to herself, because she doesn't want to further the controversies going on at camp. Also Riley tells everyone at the base camp that some vampires have special powers including the ones in the enemy coven. Bree thinks if she has special powers too..
My take on the book is that it has a pretty slow build-up and that in the end the story will really start to get interesting. My prediction is that Bree will try to become a "vegetarian" like the Cullens and strive for a better life even though they are already dammed. I like the character of Bree, Stephanie Meyer gives her a lot of personality and allows the reader to create a sympathetic bond toward her.
