Slow footsteps came towards Jonathan and there wasn’t anything he could do. He couldn’t run. He couldn’t hide. He could only stand there in the dark, as he knew he was facing certain death.
“Jonathan.” A man spoke.
Maybe it was someone from his group. Maybe Tommy had come looking for Cecilia and found him instead. “Who is it?” he asked.
“My name’s not important,” the man said, coming closer. “But you may call me Seven.”
I honestly don’t remember why exactly I started writing Seven. I can say that for a lot of my books, actually. It’s never anything specific. The only one that actually comes from a certain event is my first book, Starless Sky. The rest are just a cornucopia of ideas that I’ve stringed along to form cohesive plot. I had two things in mind going into Seven. I like reading different genres and the same goes for writing. I thought I’d try mystery by having the mysterious plot of seven people being kidnapped by a madman. However, the mystery makes it hard to explain what the book’s about. There’s so much that I want the reader to find out for themselves and to trust in the meantime that there’s something good in store. The second thing I had in mind is the spiritual aspect of it. It’s not entirely noticeable at first but its subtlety makes itself known by the end of the book.
One of my favorite things about the book is that it’s different. One of the most obvious differences for me is the genre. It was something outside of my comfort zone that I wanted to try out. A mysterious thriller. I wouldn’t exactly call it scary. I don’t think I’m quite capable of producing that (seeing as how I’m the typical girl who screams and cringes at the stupidest horror movies. Embarrassing, right?) But Seven will definitely keep your heart racing at just the right moments and that’s one of the things I love about it. When you have people kidnapped with their lives at stake, the suspense kind of speaks for itself, right?
