--Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Once Gone) 

WATCHING (The Making of Riley Paige—Book One) is book #1 in a new psychological thriller series by #1 bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose  free bestseller Once Gone (Book #1) has received over 1,000 five star reviews. 

22 year old psychology major—and aspiring FBI agent—Riley Paige finds herself in a battle for her life as her closest friends on campus are abducted and killed by a serial killer. She senses that she, too, is being targeted—and that if she is to survive, she must apply her brilliant mind to stop the killer herself.

When the FBI hits a dead end, they are impressed enough by Riley’s keen insight into the killer’s mind to allow her to help. Yet the killer’s mind is a dark, twisted place, one too diabolical to make sense of, and one that threatens to bring Riley’s fragile psyche crashing down. In this deadly game of cat and mouse, can Riley survive unscarred?

An action-packed thriller with heart-pounding suspense, WATCHING is book #1 in a riveting new series that will leave you turning pages late into the night. It takes readers back 20 plus years—to how Riley’s career began—and is the perfect complement to the ONCE GONE series (A Riley Paige Mystery), which includes 13 books and counting.

Book #2 in THE MAKING OF RILEY PAIGE series is also now available!

Ratings and reviews

I pretty much stick to numerous authors that I have followed through the years. because it was free, I downloaded one of the books featuring Riley and was really happy to find a new author. I just concluded book one watching which was outstanding and I love the narrator.

Didn't like it much. I don't mind with the narration. Infact, i appreciate her talent. However, neither i find this story mysterious nor thriller. The only suspense is who the killer is. The whole story revolves around it. But this story lacks twists and turns. It annoys me that in every next episode, nothing interesting happens. The girl just keeps on remembering either the death of her friend or what his father had said to her. Cannot relate at all

sadly, the writing style is rather simplistic and unremarksble. Made all the more difficult to listen to by a very annoying reader. A whining screach like nails on an old blackboard, detracted from a promising story line that failed to deliver realism. I didnt connect with Keri and blame that on the poor choice of narrator. As an audiobook this didnt work for me.
