The premise of this book sounds so intriguing, but the formatting wasn’t for me. It felt stilted and like it didn’t flow well. But other than that the plot was really good and the twists were great!

This is an action packed thriller. It is fast paced and entertaining
The pacing is a bit off in the middle of the book
The ending is satisfying

This book was so good! It was intriguing and really drawed me in. I'll be reading more of this authors work.

Setting you on edge from the get go, this is a cracking story with emotionally involving characters, that ensure you feel rather than read the hunt. Any book that does that is a sure-fire winner.

This book is full of suspense and twists and turns. It really kept me gripped until the very end, recommended.

Ooooooo what a ride! The suspense in this book is a tightrope walk, leading to a precipice of revelations that will keep you on edge until the final page.

This is a WOW book for me!!! Alex Knight takes a killer story line and sets us up to race along with the characters as they move from one tight spot to the next, trying to figure out exactly what is happening as they go. As a police officer, Jake Ellis KNOWS he should turn himself in, but that's not what he's going to do. Someone has set him up. He must keep Molly safe and find out who shot Rachel and issued the Amber Alert that sent them on the run. There are no slow spots in this book. If you are looking for a great thriller that is different from the usual but still a GREAT read, try this one!!!

Hunted is a twisty page-turning delight of a thriller which Knight fills with disturbing moments so tense you end up with palpitations, and despite the non-stop action, I am pleased to say that the character development was not neglected. This is a tightly plotted high-stakes game of cat and mouse with more than enough going on to keep you flipping pages.

Tense, dark, twisty, and gripping. The first I read in this series but not the last
Highly recommended
Many thanks to the publisher, all opinions are mine

Jake Ellis, a seasoned police officer with the San Francisco PD has for some time been in a relationship with Rachel, the single mother of 13-year-old Molly. Jake loves Rachel, and is horrified when Molly shows up on his doorstep early one morning, covered in blood, and informs him her mother's been shot.

Even as he is trying to absorb what the teenager is telling him, Jake spots the Amber Alert on his phone (along with the phones of 4 million others!) informing him that a child has been kidnapped by a dangerous suspect.

The child is Molly.

And the suspect is Jake.

Realising that he is being framed, and that Molly is the only witness to the shooting - since her mother is now in a coma - Jake goes on the run with the teenager. The only safe refuge he can think of is some distance away in a different part of California.

But with a highly capable police team and a determined crime podcaster on his heels, can he and Molly make it to safety so that Jake even has a chance to figure out who is behind this?

In what is no small achievement, Alex Knight delivers a high-action thriller with a suspenseful plotline that not only stands up to logical scrutiny, but is likely to keep the reader guessing until the very end...

Wow, this book was all-action right from the word go! It sounds awful, but I kept expecting a plot-hole, just for something to not add up, but Knight pieced everything together perfectly.

Character development was interesting, even down to the secondary characters such as the woman who took Molly to hospital. I also enjoyed the angle of the blogger versus the police, certainly something I’ve not read about before.

I DID guess the perpetrator but that didn’t spoil my enjoyment; it was more of a ‘high-five, go me!’ moment!

Never read anything by this author before, but I would definitely be interested in his other work.

Thankyou again,
4/5 stars

Unfortunately i did not finish this. the pacing was off for my personal liking in thrillers and i could not build a connection with the MC or the other characters involved.
The idea was done countless times before, and the beginning was really satisfying but after a while it became a chore with some parts of the story.

A fast-paced and incredibly intense thriller that never lets up and keeps you hooked. Looking forward to reading more from the author!

Great start, great middle, great ending brilliantly written book. I need to eat more by this author

This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.

I was provided an ARC from NetGalley and the publisher. This is my own honest voluntary

Wow. - what an amazingly tense start that just kept getting better. Great concept and expertly executed.

Hunted Alex Knight
I really enjoyed this book. Molly arrives at Jake's apartment in a state of panic, her mother has been shot and Molly has fled the scene. Jake realises quickly he is the main suspect, and he is a cop.
High octane action, that kept me interested until the end.

The book was very well written and flowed well. The plot was great. Everything I thought it would be from the description
