Publisher's summary

When a woman is found brutally murdered on Austin’s lakeside hike-and-bike trail, investigative reporter Bailey Rhoads turns up on the scene demanding access and answers. She tries to pry information out of the lead Detective Jacob Merritt, but this case is unlike any he’s ever seen, and nothing adds up. With the pressure building, Jacob knows the last thing he needs is a romantic entanglement, but he can’t convince himself to stay away from Bailey.

Bailey has a hunch that the victim wasn’t who she claimed to be and believes this mugging-turned-murder could have been a targeted hit. When she digs deeper, the trail leads her to a high-tech fortress on the outskirts of Austin, where researchers are pushing the boundaries of a cutting-edge technology that could be deadly in the wrong hands.

As a ruthless hit man’s mission becomes clear, Bailey and Jacob join together in a desperate search to locate the next target before the clock ticks down in this lethal game of hide-and-seek.

Hidden by Laura Griffin

Hidden by Laura Griffin
1st book in The Texas Murder Files series. Romantic suspense crime thriller.
Bailey Rhoads is a crime reporter investigating the death of a woman on the local running trail. Bailey tries to work with Detective Jacob Merritt but each prefer to keep certain details to themselves rather than share, though a mutual attraction pulls at them both. Their investigation takes them to New Orleans and to the FBI.

Chilling to realize that current technology could impact so much in life. The story includes a potential that wouldn’t surprise me is already in use somewhere.
Fast, daring and intriguing. I look forward to the next in the series.
4.5

I fully enjoyed the audio version of this story narrated by Teri Clark Linden. It was compelling at high stress points as expected for a thriller. The various voices nuances were good and followable.

Too much romance

This should be considered a romance novel and not a thriller. I didn’t finish it.

Thriller of a mystery with romance

I have read other books by Laura Griffin and really liked them so I anticipated a great read in Hidden. I was not disappointed! I enjoy a suspenseful story with twists and turns and in the end the two most unlikely people end up together. Loved Hidden and can’t wait for Flight.

Cookie Cutter

Overly precise pronunciation sounds robotic. The narrator hits the final 'd' so hard in the word 'and' (for example) that it becomes a two-syllable word, the phrase 'next to' becomes three. Weird and annoying. Why not read it like a human being with normal elision? Oh, well, it served to distract from formulaic writing and unoriginal dialogue.

Mixed feelings

I have mixed feelings about this book. Parts were good suspense, but lead character was a roller coaster ride.

Overall enjoyable

I found Hidden a very interesting and entertaining read. At times I felt as though the storyline was a lot, but it came together nicely.

Nice story and a decent romance plot. I definitely recommend!

Definitely a slow burn

It definitely has a noticeably slow start but the last 10 or so chapters really pick up the pace and keep you hooked.

So sappy

I finished, against my better judgment! Really didn’t like the reader, at all. I’m not someone who wants to hear about other’s sex acts, gotta love fast forward
