Summary: (from Amazon)
Gabry lives a quiet life. As safe a life as is possible in a town trapped between a forest and the ocean, in a world teeming with the dead, who constantly hunger for those still living. She’s content on her side of the Barrier, happy to let her friends dream of the Dark City up the coast while she watches from the top of her lighthouse. But there are threats the Barrier cannot hold back. Threats like the secrets Gabry’s mother thought she left behind when she escaped from the Sisterhood and the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Like the cult of religious zealots who worship the dead. Like the stranger from the forest who seems to know Gabry. And suddenly, everything is changing. One reckless moment, and half of Gabry’s generation is dead, the other half imprisoned. Now Gabry only knows one thing: she must face the forest of her mother’s past in order to save herself and the one she loves.

Ohh this sounds good and I really enjoyed The Forest of Hands And Teeth.
Question: Ya gotta read Forrest of Hands and Feet first, right?
I really enjoyed the first book in this series, so I'll definitely be picking this one up!
From the description I think you do need to read TFOHAT first. This Gabry could as well be the Gabrielle mentioned in The Forest, or could be Mary's daughter.
I'd read The Forest first if I were you, and hadn't read it. (if you haven't, read it! It's awesome)
