An exhilarating psychological thriller, THE THIRD VICTIM written by New York Times
Bestselling Author Phillip Margolin, is one novel that has an amazing
storyline! I enjoying reading this page-turner and found it hard to put
down. Margolin has a way of telling the story through each of his
intense chapters. This is one that will keep you guessing with an
alarming ending.
A woman is found in the road late one night half dressed coming out of
the woods. She had been kidnapped, beaten, and tortured until she
was able to escape. Two other women who were found dead suffered
the same burns and beatings leaving her as the only survivor from a
madman. She is able to describe where her captor had held her at the
private cottage owned by Alex Mason, an attorney. Between evidence
and the survivor's statement, things aren't looking good for Alex.
Regina Barrister is known as "The Sorceress" because of her success
as a criminal defense attorney is on the case. As long as her secret
does not interfere with her job at defending Alex Mason then her
reputation continues to follow her. Robin Lockwood, a new young
lawyer who dreamed of working with Regina and use to be a former
MMA fighter joins Regina's team to defend Alex Mason. Robin is
worried that Regina is not up to her reputation this time and Alex faces
the death penalty if convicted.
Phillip Margolin's novel has more astonishing occurrences in this
fascinating story. THE THIRD
VICTIM is a novel I recommend if you love stories that have a twist,
and suspense that keep you engaged.
