The Girl Next Door

Emma Griffin FBI Mystery, Book 4

By: A.J. Rivers

Narrated by: Claire Duncan

Complete silence filled the room until an unexpected sound brought Emma out of her slumber and into the mystery of the girl next door.

Sherwood is a sleepy little town. A town full of friendly faces and even friendlier neighbors. Which is why FBI agent Emma Griffin isn't surprised when her new neighbor starts stopping by to chat. Turns out her neighbor has a dark past and secrets that made her run.

As much as Emma wished it wasn’t true, a dark past and secrets are things that she is far too familiar with, especially now more than ever.

A chilling "unknown" filled the air of Sherwood, Virginia.

Strange things are happening around Emma. Things that no one can explain, and many don't believe.

And Emma witnesses two figures hidden by sheer curtains, strangling a smaller figure. A figure she can only assume to be Ruby's. She becomes a witness to the murder of the girl next door. But what do you do when no one believes that the girl even existed?

Emma’s world starts to spin, and she begins to wonder - Is someone taunting her and taking lives to torment her? Or, has she truly gone crazy?

The Girl Next Door is the fourth book in the Emma Griffin Mystery series, and it can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Great story

The story was full of mystery and suspense and the character for Sam was so damn annoying. I couldn’t believe that he just was so resistant to believe they were setting Emma up

What’s real and what’s imagined

Emma is still in Sherwood and trying to unravel the mystery that is her parents when she believes that she witnessed the murder of her new neighbor. The problem…there is no body and Emma’s other neighbors have never met or seen the new woman. Other events occur that only Emma witnesses and even Sam is not believing her. Quite frankly, Sam was beginning to act on my nerves with his condescending attitude. That said, this book kept me on my toes and was quite enjoyable…did not see the ending coming.

okay okay.

I didn't care much for the second or third books. I really enjoyed the first one and this one brought me back in.
the only thing in struggling to understand is why is she wasting time with sam? he has proved to be a dick many times. refused to believe her when she's shown him proof, why bother? familiar face? I dunno, other than that, solid book. the ending was a little popcorn fart but good story throughout.

Another excellent Installment!

AJ RIVERS is an excellent "comfortable story" author. That's not to say she doesn't write great action, or thrilling distress situations because she does. The comfort comes in knowing that you will not be disappointed in this series!

Awesome

Claire the narrator is awesome. Keeps you in guessing the entire book.
