This was actually the first thriller I’ve ever read, and it completely surprised me in the best way. I started the book thinking I would just read a few chapters, but it pulled me in so much that I ended up finishing the whole book in one evening. I just couldn’t stop reading because I always wanted to know what would happen next. The story follows FBI agent Ella Dark, who is sent to investigate the murder of a woman who was found dead in her own shop. While working on the case, she starts discovering clues that seem to connect the crime to serial killers and their patterns. I found that part especially fascinating because it gave a deeper look into how these criminals think, which made the story even more intense and interesting. What I really liked about the book was how gripping and easy to read it was. The story kept me hooked the whole time, and the suspense never really stopped. If you’re interested in stories about serial killers and investigations, I would definitely recommend this book. It’s very suspenseful and hard to put down.

i really enjoyed reading Girl, Alone. it s the first book by Blake Pierce that i read and it was exciting from the beginning to the end. the story is fast and full of mystery one of the most interesting parts ofthis book was the serial killer story. i really liked how the killer copied famous serial killers from the past & it wasn t just a normal murder case, it felt like a strange and scary lesson about real killers and how they work/ed. each murder in the book was done in a special way just like one of the old well known killers which made the story more creepy and exciting while reading i wasn t only wondering who the murder was but also which killer are they copying next which made the book more gripping but for a better plot twist, the murderer should have been someone we know..? for example her dad s killer.. 4/5🩸

FBI Agentin Ella Dark bietet sich die Chance, ihren Traum zu erfüllen: Von der Intelligence- in die Behavioral-Einheit des FBIs zu wechseln. Ihr erster Einsatz ist auch direkt eine große Nummer: Eine Frau wird brutal in ihrem Laden ermordet. Und die Tat erinnert Ella direkt an einen anderen Mord, den sie in und auswendig kennt. Ganz ehrlich: Ich bin froh, vorher keinen Klappentext gelesen zu haben. Ich finde, dass zB auch die Goodreads-Beschreibung richtig viel Plot und Spannung vorweg nimmt. Lest die vielleicht nicht, wenn ihr das Buch noch lesen wollt. Hätte ich die Zeit gehabt, hätte ich das in einem Rutsch durchgelesen. Es war durchgehend spannend, gut geschrieben und keine Sekunde langweilig. Ich empfand es als gut geschrieben und empfehle es vor allem allen, die sich für True Crime und Serienkiller interessieren. Richtig schöner, schneller Read für alle Thriller-Fans. Einen Punkt Abzug gibt es, weil ich Ellas Charakterentwicklung ein bisschen gerusht fand und sie am Ende einfach ein bisschen zu cocky und nicht ihres Alters/ihrer Erfahrung entsprechend empfunden habe. Den nächsten Band werde ich auf jedem Fall auch lesen!
