Girl, Alone (An Ella Dark FBI Suspense Thriller, Book 1) is the debut novel in a long-anticipated new series by number one best seller and USA Today best-selling author Blake Pierce, whose best seller Once Gone has received over 1,000 five star reviews.

FBI Agent Ella Dark, 29, is given her big chance to achieve her life’s dream: to join the Behavioral Crimes Unit. Ella has a hidden obsession: She has studied serial killers from the time she could read, devastated by the murder of her own sister. With her photographic memory, she has obtained an encyclopedic knowledge of every serial killer, every victim, and every case. Singled out for her brilliant mind, Ella is invited to join the big leagues.

But when a killer strikes in the swamps of Louisiana, Ella soon comes to learn that the real thing is nothing she could expect. Face to face with a real murder, a real killer, and a real ticking clock, Ella realizes she can’t rely on her knowledge. She must learn to trust her instinct, and allow herself to enter the dark canals of a real killer’s mind. If she gets it wrong, her career is at stake.

And so is the next victim’s life.

Will Ella’s talent be an asset? Or the source of her downfall?

A harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Ella Dark series is a riveting mystery, packed with suspense, twists, and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you listening late into the night.

Books two and three in the series — Girl, Taken and Girl, Hunted — are also available.

Hard to stop listening

Liked the main characters and the story. Narrator made easy to visualize Wnat to read another by B. Pierce

The rookie and the serial killer

FBI analyst, Ella Dark has just been given the opportunity of a lifetime…accompany a veteran BAU agent to investigate a possible serial murder. Ella soon deduces that they are after a copycat serial killer. Good story, albeit a bit slow.

A new favorite

Not a disappointing story. I enjoyed the story line, the characters and the narrator. If you a fan of Blake Pierce this is a must.

meh

character development was minimal and the dialog and relationship between main characters wasn't very sophisticated and seemed to fluctuate rather than a steady progression. The plot line felt like it was strung together as the author went.

The reader is tough to listen to.

The story is interesting enough but some of the story gets lost in the breathy and at times, falsetto voice of the reader. You hear her breathing often as well. It’s distracting.
