Dear Reader,

Have you ever wondered how it would feel if someone you loved deeply was in danger and you were powerless to help him? I did, standing at the edge of a lake as I watched my children play in the water.

That was the moment Emily Parker's struggle against a notorious serial killer, bent on disabling her so he could reach her son, was born in my imagination. Before returning home from a family vacation on Cape Cod, Emily makes a quick run to the grocery store—and vanishes.

When FIVE DAYS IN SUMMER was first published in 2004 (pseudonymously as Kate Pepper), it quickly became a USA Today bestseller and then an international bestseller.

Lisa Gardener called it "Mesmerizing."

Publishers Weekly praised its "taut, clean storytelling."

Now FIVE DAYS IN SUMMER has been reissued under my real name with a beautiful new cover—and is also available as an ebook for the first time.

Please visit my website at www.KatiaLief.com where you will find all my books. If suspense isn't your thing, check out LOVE, SEX & THE WRONG BRIDE ("Laugh-aloud funny," Publishers Weekly), SOUL CATCHER (young adult), and more.
