Publisher's summary

Fresh off the high of solving her first major investigation at her new department, Detective Rachel Ryder is about to risk losing it all.

"Detective Rachel Ryder is smart, tough, and fearless - readers will gladly follow her through every twist.” (LynDee Walker, Amazon Charts best-selling author of Fear No Truth)

A drug overdose case hits close to home when a body is linked to the family of Rachel's friend. But the seemingly simple investigation leads her down a rabbit hole from her past - a past she fears has finally come back to haunt her.

As bodies begin to accumulate, Detective Ryder knows in her gut that vengeance is upon her. Yet time and again, the evidence just doesn't add up.

Obsessed with stopping a murderer bent on revenge, Rachel plows ahead on instinct alone. But emotions cloud her judgment, mistakes pile up, and she puts the lives of others at risk.

Increasingly isolated, Rachel begins to question her own sanity. Is she succumbing to fear? Or has Rachel's past finally caught up with her?

Best-selling author Carolyn Ridder Aspenson delivers a riveting addition to the Rachel Ryder series.

Good story and characters

I liked the storyline and characters , but felt the language (F bomb) was used a little too much. I feel like you can have a strong, smart, female detective without using so much language. That being said, I still want to know what happens to the characters, so I will probably still purchase the next book. It's just a shame the language is so strong.

Great Mystery

A drug addict is dead and Ryder/Bishop need to find out if it's homicide or overdose. I like Rachel Ryder she's a badas*, take no sh*t detective that gets her answers no matter who the person is. This is the 2nd book in a series by Carolyn Ridder Aspenson, this series, so far, is very well done. I can't wait til October to read the 3rd book. I think mystery, thriller/suspense will love these books.

Read this book, it’s pretty good

The style of this female cop is masculine in that she has no interest in fashion … she is her job so she isn’t really multi dimensional like VI Warshowski but she is very relatable.

Excellent addition to the Rachel Ryder series.

If you enjoy police procedural thrillers with a strong female lead, these Rachel Ryder books are tailor made for you. Hunted Girl follows Rachel on a case that involves the murder of a close friend’s family member while she attempts to resolve a personal threat that stems back to her past and the loss of her husband. I had wondered how Carolyn Ridder Aspenson was going to follow up the initial Rachel Ryder story, now I can say she did it with a bang and hit this one out of the park. Once again Anne Marie Damman does an awesome job of bringing Rachel, Rob, and the rest of the cast to life. Even though I had previously read this book, listening to the audiobook felt not only like experiencing the story for the first time, but it also filled in a few gaps where my reading seems to have missed. Thanks to Severn River Publishing for providing me with an audiobook review copy of Hunted Girl.

Rachel Ryder is the new Raylan Givens!

This installment reminds me of one of my favorite southern crime TV shows, Justified. Like the shows MC Raylan Givens, Aspenson's Rachel Ryder is gritty, gruff, and at times rash. I love how the author combines Ryder's past and current cases into a complex and twisted storyline. This "who dun it" has a lot of players and at times I felt I needed a whiteboard to follow it too. But in the end, it was a fantastic crime procedural. I'm looking forward to reading other books in this series and seeing how the case of Ryder's murdered husband plays into future installments.

Narrator - Anne Marie Damman
The narrator does a great job bringing this installment to life.
