About this audiobook
Once Hunted is book #5 in the bestselling Riley Paige mystery series, which begins with the #1 bestseller Once Gone.
A prison break from a maximum security prison. Frantic calls from the FBI. Special Agent Riley Paige’s worst nightmare has come true: a serial killer she put away years ago is loose.
And his main target is her.
Riley is used to being the one hunting, but for the first time, she finds herself—and her family—to be the ones being hunted. As the killer stalks her, he also begins a new rampage of kills, and Riley must stop him before it is too late—for the other victims, and for herself.
But this is no ordinary killer. He is too smart, and their game of cat-and-mouse too twisted, and he somehow manages to elude her and always stay one step ahead. Desperate to stop him, Riley realizes there is only one way: she must delve back into the past, into this killer’s twisted mind, his old cases, and re-learn what drives him. The only way to stop him, she realizes, is to face the darkness she thought she had left behind.
A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, Once Hunted is book #5 in a riveting series—with a beloved new character—that will leave you listening late into the night.

Reviews for Once Hunted (A Riley Paige Mystery—Book 5)
195 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great story page Turner from start to finish always love a good Blake pace book
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love the story lines and characters, but I truly am put off by the narrator’s British accent. This is is about The FBI not MI 6.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I honestly like this series but the overbearing constant portrayal of the top brass of the fbi as being incompetent gets really old. And the voice they use for him I normally have to skip over it’s so annoying. Riley left a marriage because she is an independent woman with a mind of her own as portrayed in the book, so it doesn’t fit that she would stay in a position where she is constantly berated in her job. Doesn’t fit well. And what’s with a USA based novel with a British voice reading all of the novels? Not a deal breaker but kind of odd. Outside of these things the story lines are pretty interesting and holds my attention. Will keep listening :)
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I agree with the other review, the FBI boss character is pretty annoying. What is the most annoying is the narrator, FBI agents with British Accents, no. The narrator’s voiced for the different characters range from comical to completely irritating. The pronunciation of US place names is off most of the time. Please get a better narrator.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Blake Pierce is a brilliant writer of murder mysteries. So far I have read 5 of Blake's books, and I have found each one to be thoroughly enjoyable. And have been kept up for hours, not wanting to out them down. You will not be disappointed.
