The Perfect Victim
Linda Castillo

Bestselling & Rita Award finalist Linda Castillo has been hailed as "masterful, heartwarming, and heart-stopping...an author to watch."-Romantic Times. Now this rising star of romantic suspense follows a woman trying to solve the mystery of her past.

Despite a happy childhood, successful entrepreneur Addison Fox has always yearned to find her birth mother. And with the unexpected death of her adopted parents comes a renewed determination to fill in the missing pieces of her life-to find her "other" family. But she's too late.

Burnt-out from past investigations, Randall Talbot is looking for some relief while helping out at his brother's detective agency. But when Addison Fox walks in, he can't resist her plea for help-even though the cost is murder.

Addison is the sole survivor of her bloodline-a line that a killer is determined to make extinct. And even if the world-weary Randall has little regard left for life, he may be the only man capable of saving hers...
