Sherry Scarpaci

The 13th Victim Sherry Scarpaci

The whispered call comes in the middle of the night. "Kate, I left a present for you at the Little River Bridge." Detective Kate Turner knows the meaning of those chilling words: there's another dead girl to haunt her dreams. The press dubs the killer the Butcher. The crimes are eerily similar to those committed by Christopher Long in Florida. When his grisly souvenirs show up at crime scenes fourteen hundred miles away, it appears Long's on the hunt again-except he's been dead nearly twenty years. Kate's done her homework-she knows Long worked alone. So who could possibly have his gruesome keepsakes? The case hits close to home for Kate-too close. Now she's on a hunt of her own, determined to catch the Butcher if it's the last thing she does...and that's just what the depraved killer has in mind.
