Mary Burton is one of my favorite thriller writers. I was so excited to get my hands on her newest book, The Seventh Victim and it did not disappoint! From the first page, I felt compelled to keep to turning the pages. Lara Church just can't escape the horrors of what happened to her seven years ago and she can't escape the police hounding her to try to remember. She can only remember small tidbits and just wants to move on and have a normal life.
She tries to do that in Austin, Texas until Texas Ranger James Beck bothers her. He is confident that the Strangler has returned and may be coming back to finish what he started seven years ago with Lara. He implores Lara to remember more so he can help find this killer before he kills again. But can he protect her from this psychopath before it's too late?
Gripping, masterful and chilling, The Seventh Victim is sure to be a best-seller for Burton. With her signature writing, creating memorable characters and surprise twists, The Seventh Victim holds nothing back. I was up late burning the midnight oil, relentless in my pursuit of finding how it all turned out. If you enjoy thrilling suspense, you won't want to miss this one! Highly recommend!

I thought this was one of Mary Burton's BEST! Kept me reading.....and everytime I put the book down I was rehashing the storyline in my head which made me run to grab the book & continue reading "just a few more pages" I kept telling myself! Finished the book in no time as this is exactly the type of mystery/thriller I like best.......when it is hard to get the story out of my head!
Not the best I've ever read but it's just okay. characters are not the greatest, meaning you don't have any like or dislike for them they are just characters in the story. The storyline is an old one maybe just revamped a little but it's not hard to figure out.
Mary Burton, has yet to disappoint me with her writing style. This story kept my interest from page one to the last page. Not exactly nail biting on the edge of your seat drama, but very well written with a couple of twists and turns at the end.. I would highly recommend any book she has written. The next book"No
Escape" I believe I have already read, but just might read over.
