A Note to Readers from the Author
Dear Reader,
I can’t always tell what sparks the idea behind a novel, but for THE SEVENTH VICTIM it was a news story about a woman who’d survived a vicious attack. I couldn’t stop thinking about her; I wanted to know what happened next. How did she cope? How did her life change? Is she still afraid? Enter Lara Church, survivor of a horrendous attack. Though she has no memory of that night, her life was changed forever. She moves around the country, certain she’s mere steps ahead of her attacker. Just as she believes she can finally stop running, the killing begins again.
Mary Burton

The chilling new novel from New York Times bestselling author Mary Burton has a killer on the hunt for the only one he really wants, the one that got away…
