Nico Sirsky is the main character in The 7th Woman. He is the youngest-ever Chief of Police at a seemingly youthful thirty-eight years of age. While he excels in his position, he cannot deny that the pressure of the job is getting to him as he has to go to the doctor to get his ulcers checked out. He is a cop that is very good at his job but not so fantastic in his personal life; he has a young son named Dmitry in addition to a dramatic ex-wife who is struggling with her bouts of depression.

Even though he is divorced, Nico is excited at the prospect of a new romance on the horizon. He has developed strong feelings for his doctor Caroline, and it’s almost worth having potential ulcers to get to see her. After years of loneliness and even depression, he has a reason to get up in the morning (besides tracking down criminals).

Sirsky balances his parental duties with his dedication to the safety of the people living in this area. La Crim is the best division of criminal investigation in the city. The people that work there are dedicated to taking down the bad guys. The department becomes aware of a killer that is murdering women in the capital, and the first victim is a young woman. When the autopsy is done on her, they discover that she was actually four weeks pregnant.

The killer strikes again and this time the woman is found to be also one month pregnant. Six women are killed over the course of six days– the murders are happening at a breathtakingly fast pace.

Even though the killer is striking many different women down, they somehow manage to never leave any clues as to who they are. He or she is now a serial killer, and as they claim their victims one by one through bloody ritual, the police and the criminal division are called upon to stop this brutal murderer. Not only is the killer targeting women who are pregnant, but now they seem to be targeting the Chief of Police, too.

Nico Sirsky is determined to find out who the murderer is, and it seems that the killer becomes interested in him as well. When he begins threatening Nico’s family and even the doctor that he is beginning to have feelings for, he and his department have little time to spare before the killer strikes again. With every murder being a woman that is ever closer to being connected to Nico, they are all racing as quickyl as they can to find clues that will allow them to track down the killer. Slowly but surely, they edge closer to finding out who this person is. It may just turn out that Nico is being targeted by someone that he knows very well.

Struggling wtih his doubts and fear and running on very little sleep, Nico is doing everything that he can do to find the killer and stop this crazy person for good. But will the killer ever be discovered or make their identity known? Can he make good on this pattern and will the seventh woman be someone that Nico knows and cares about? You’ll have to pick up The 7th Woman to find out.
