The Fifth Victim

In Cherokee Pointe, Tennessee, deep in the Smoky Mountains, a victim lies sacrificed on a makeshift altar -- the gruesome work of a killer who has evaded the authorities in state after state. FBI agent Dallas Sloan knows the scene all too well -- just as he knows the killings won't stop until there are four more bodies.Genny Madoc's "sixth sense" has brought many of Cherokee Pointe's residents to her isolated log cabin, looking for help. But now it's Genny who needs help from the disturbing visions she sees -- images that are getting stronger and more violent day by day.Thrown together by necessity, drawn to each other by desire, Dallas and Genny must band together, searching the darkest heart of a town's hidden secrets before a twisted killer can complete a sinister plan that will make one of them the fifth victim.Barton, Beverly is the author of 'The Fifth Victim', published 2006 under ISBN 9780821781647 and ISBN 0821781642.
