At seventeen, Liz Clarke fled a broken romance, a terrible family secret, and a hard-scrabble life as the daughter of a drunken commercial fisherman on the Delaware Bay. Ambition and determination turn her from a frightened girl to an educated and worldly college professor.
But when Liz returns home years later to a new teaching position and an isolated three-hundred-year old farmhouse, she doesn't expect to find one of her students brutally murdered in her office or to hear from her old flame, the county's bad boy Jack Rafferty, the same night.
And she doesn't realize that she's at risk from the sadistic Game Master, a serial killer who tortures and murders women before disposing of their mutilated bodies in crab traps. Stalked and terrorized, Liz has two choices—run or stay and fight for her life and the future she's struggled so hard to achieve.

Reviews for At Risk "AT RISK is a taut, edgy and outstanding psychologically suspenseful thriller that keeps you rapidly turning the pages. ...Judith E. French sustains a palpable sense of menace throughout this gripping romantic suspense tale." --Affaire de Coeur "Judy French is a master
storyteller and has created a searing page-turner in At Risk. It's
achilling read, and I couldn't put it down. After working as a

I was wrong. Judy French managed to surprise me in this compelling
serial killer tale. I highly recommend it." Mary Kennedy, Psy.D, licensed clinical psychologist |
