"There is no justice when someone is murdered."
The Girl and the Hunt is book 6 in the Emma Griffin FBI mysteries and we are finally getting answers about Emma's family.
This book unlike the other books in the series has little short chapters where we get to see other's points of view. During these points of view, we get to see things from the past, that help us learn more about Emma's stalker and her trying to find out what happened to her dad. We also have her back in Feathered Nest where this all started and she is now once again connected to another murder. Whoever is stalking her is now also leading her on a wild goose chase of sorts and it's getting deadlier for everyone closer to.
The Girl on the Hunt also brings a new potential future mystery-solving partner in for Emma by the name of Dean. We met him first on the train in the last one and it turns out they are more connected than that and have been trying to find one of the same people. While Emma of course doesn't trust him fully, she does rely on him some to help her find some info out. This book also heavily involves Bellamy and Eric again and we see Emma really relying on them more and more of their friendship dynamic.
"This person is doing this because of me. Like I said, this is a game. A sick, twisted, screwed-up, patented by Hades himself game, but a game. And he doesn't want to play with you. He wants to play with me... So let me play."
Overall I think this one might be my favorite of the series so far because of how much we found out in it. Not only are we finally getting answers about Emma's parents, but also answers about the stalker we've seen her dealing with throughout the series as well.
I loved seeing all the flashbacks from different people as it helped piece things together and what has been happening for the past ten plus years and how things got to the point that they are now that Emma is involved or at least a target in them.
I cannot wait to read book seven and see hopefully how this all wraps up as I'm really hoping we get some official answers as to why this is happening to her and those around her.

We were on a good trajectory, but we fell flat on book 6 of Emma Griffin FBI. Emma and Sam rush back to Feathered Nest to try and save one of the residents from Catch Me's deadly clutches. They arrive too late, but Emma vows to make this stop. Catch Me has left more clues to Emma's past, but I felt as though it was a slow trudge to get to our conclusion. As always, I enjoyed the flashbacks and occasional delve into others' POVs. Like some other reviewers though, I am starting to feel that with as many books that are being generated and with how quickly they are coming out, there is something being lost. I feel as though some of these could have been combined for a longer book but more cohesive and interesting story arc. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel for her past to be resolved. I just hope it was worth the wait.

The 6th book of the series and just as amazing as the first. The mystery of Emma's past continues to unfold as well as new mysteries arising. I didn't want to put the book down.

Interesting
It was very slow to the build up, I wish it picked up a bit more. Again the back and forth between past and present can be confusing and leave me lost at times. But other than that, the book was pretty good.

I have enjoyed everyone of Rivers books so far. This 6th book caused me to have more questions. Who is 'Catch Me'? Where exactly has Greg been and who beat him up? Who is actually after Emma? I need to get the 7th book to find out these answers. If you like mysteries, I think you would like this series.
