Synopsis:
No one expects to be kidnapped.
No one expects to have to fight for their life.
But for Katy Ketcher, that nightmare is about to become reality. She’s sixteen years old, and the daughter of a wealthy Hollywood producer. She’s the perfect victim.
Now, Katy and her best friend Jill must use their wits and cunning in a desperate battle for survival against four dangerous criminals. As events spiral out of control, will their friendship be enough to survive the ensuing bloodbath?
The Perfect Victim is the latest violent thriller from David Sodergren, author of The Forgotten Island and Maggie’s Grave.

The Perfect Victim is a kidnapping and revenge story that captured my heart and broke it at the same time. The book was both intense and shockingly funny and I found it impossible to put down. The tonal shift from light-hearted funny moments to dread-inducing horror made me gasp.
I loved the dialogue between the characters, especially the friendly banter between Katy and Jill. Katy could be very unserious at the worst of times, out of touch with reality, and that aspect made her a convincing character being the teenage daughter of a rich Hollywood producer. She is a charming lead character and how the story plays out was deeply satisfying.
David Sodergren’s books are always exciting and just plain fun, and I find myself clawing to pick them back up every chance I get. This is my second Sodergren book and he truly doesn’t miss, it’s easy to see why he’s become an indie darling. He’s quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.
