The Seventh Victim by Michael Wood

The Seventh Victim by Michael Wood

From the bestselling author of the DCI Matilda Darke series comes a standalone thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page… ‘Dark, twisting and captivating. The very essence of the just-one-more-page thriller’ Will Carver ‘Wood gets better with every book. I couldn’t let go of this tragedy of loss and deception from the moment I picked it up’ Alex Marwood, author of The Island of Lost Girls *** On a cold February afternoon in 1990, seven-year-old Danny Redpath disappeared from his home. Four months later, his body was found in the nearby forest, wrapped in a sheet and washed clean of all evidence. Apprehended while attempting to abduct another child, Jonathan Egan-Walsh was charged with the murders of more than a dozen boys. Convicted on all counts, he received life in prison and went unrepentant, still refusing to reveal the whereabouts of one of his victims, Zachery Marshall. Twenty-five years later, Zachery’s mother Diane is still searching for his body. When Jonathan dies in custody, she realises she will never know its location – until she receives a letter he left in his cell, in which he admits he was guilty of all the crimes of which he was accused, except the murder of her son… *** ‘A twisty, gripping read takes us inside the mind of a perverted serial killer. It pulls no punches, and the final scenes come as a real shock’ David Young ‘Immersive and darkly devious with sly twists and a compelling protagonist’ Neil Broadfoot ‘If you like your crime books intense, character-driven and with regular punches to the gut, this is for you’ Louise Swanson Readers love The Seventh Victim: ‘You can't go wrong with a Michael Wood book.
