ONCE PINED is book #6 in the bestselling Riley Paige mystery series, which begins with the #1 bestseller ONCE GONE (Book #1)—a free download with over 700 five star reviews!

Men and women are turning up dead in the outskirts of Seattle, poisoned by a mysterious chemical. When a pattern is discovered and it becomes clear that a twisted serial killer is on the hunt, the FBI calls in their best asset: Special Agent Riley Paige. Riley is urged to return to the line of duty—but Riley, still reeling from the attacks on her family, is loath to return. Yet as bodies mount, and the murders become more inexplicable, Riley knows she has no choice.

The case takes Riley deep into the unsettling world of nursing homes, of hospitals, of drifting caretakers and psychotic patients. As Riley delves deeper into the mind of the murderer, she realizes she is hunting the most terrifying killer of all: one whose madness knows no depths—and yet who may just appear shockingly ordinary.

A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, ONCE PINED is book #6 in a riveting new series—with a beloved new character—that will leave you turning pages late into the night.

Book #7 in the Riley Paige series is also now available!

Ratings and reviews

I started on one and couldn’t stop. Riley does irritate me sometimes though as she doesn’t seem to take her career very seriously considering she has two daughters. In my opinion I think she could follow orders better and still get the job done. Easy reads.

I have loved this entire series but for me this shown signs of weakness. Didnt have the drama or intensity of the others and I think this series is coming to an end. Dobt keep bringing new ones out close the series on a high...

Enjoyed this story line and I liked the fact that this murder didn't come after Riley. Loving these books. Would be cool to see Shane the Chain officially link in with the FBI to help solve cases.
