Marked for Death

In coastal North Carolina, Sarah Winfield was enjoying her new life, which was quiet, safe... invisible. Until one mistake put her in the path of a ruthless predator. She had an unexpected dinner guest after running into him at the local drugstore. Sean had been in her high school class, not a close friend, more of an acquaintance. He told her he was there with his brother and his family, enjoying one of the beautiful beaches in her county. She invited him to her home for dinner the following evening.

After Sean left, she heard the doorbell and opened the door, thinking he had returned. Not usually careless about her safety, she found herself in front of a masked gunman. The man ordered her to the bedroom and, after attacking her, he left her tied up and without a way out of her predicament. Waiting for help to arrive, she suffered two agonizing days before her boss came to her rescue. The nightmare wasn't over. He was still out there, stalking her and terrorizing the community she lived in.

She had been through one ordeal in her hometown several years before. The star witness in a trial that put her former boss in prison, she left after the trial to escape the pressure the community had put on her to do the right thing.

Her prior ordeal gave her the inner strength and wit to help law enforcement stop him. Her simple actions stopped a deadly predator.
