About this audiobook

“A masterpiece of thriller and mystery! The author did a magnificent job developing characters with a psychological side that is so well described that we feel inside their minds, follow their fears and cheer for their success. The plot is very intelligent and will keep you entertained throughout the book. Full of twists, this book will keep you awake until the turn of the last page.” 

--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!

This "Riley Paige" Audiobook was Totally, Forensicly F••KED UP by the Incomprehensible Decision to have This Novel was read aloud with, I have to say, THE Most Bizarre Voice-over work It's been my Displeasure to listen to! The "reader" – I'll forego naming her, as I'm sure there was, if Not a Producer, then at least an Editor, who must have listened to at least a Chapter, before declaring this Tragedy as "Fit To Be Let Loose!" on an Unsuspecting Audience! [-Sadly I've Only ME to Blame for My decision to purchase yet another Blake Pierce "Crime Novel" WITHOUT Listening To The "Sample" 1st! (As I normally do and always advise others to do) Before hitting any "BUY" Buttons!] ‐ the "Reader", allowed far too much leeway, decided to meander down the Acting & Accents route - A Huge Mistake! I was So distracted by her weirdness, that after 4 Chapters, I've still No Idea what this Audiobook is about! Except it's a Blake Pierce; 'Riley Paige' story with a capable American Reader- Not! P0D.

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.

I liked it. I've gotten used to a British accent for American characters. I didn't like the Vivienne voice over person. sorry but she needs more acting lessons. This book started off slow and got frustrated with her holding back. But I had to remember this is before she becomes who she becomes.
