Publisher's summary

She was beautiful: shiny blond hair, crystal blue eyes and the widest smile Nikki had ever seen. She thought back to what she had seen in the ground, the dirt that caked the white bones. All that remained of her now was the silver locket that was still around her neck....

When construction workers unearth a girl’s skeleton in Stillwater, Minnesota, Special Agent Nikki Hunt is called to the scene by her boyfriend Rory. Nikki knows instantly that the girl was murdered, but she is shocked when Rory immediately recognizes her. The victim was his childhood sweetheart, Becky, and he was the last person to see her before she went missing 24 years ago.

With the love of her life now a potential suspect, Nikki is forced to take a step back from the case. But then her colleague Liam finds lies in Rory’s statement - it appears that Becky may have been carrying Rory’s child when she was killed. Despite this, Nikki still thinks he could be innocent, and knows she must find the real killer herself if Rory stands any chance of walking free.

When Nikki finds a potential link to two pregnant girls who were found murdered years before it’s clear that this is the most twisted killer that she has ever faced. And then another girl goes missing from Stillwater. Can Nikki unearth the truth and protect the man she loves? And will she find the missing girl in time to save her life?

A dark and twisty crime thriller that will make you hold your breath as you race towards the end. The Girl in the Ground is a new mystery for fans of Lisa Regan, Robert Dugoni, and Willow Rose.

Pretty good

The story is overall pretty good but the narrator mispronouncing words and items is irritating. That is my only complaint.

The girl in the ground

This a great book by Lisa so many twists and turns. She makes you part of the story like you’re solving the crime. Can’t wait to read the others.

Nikki is irritating

I like the storyline but Nikki bothers me. She comes across conceited, condescending & rude.
Also, the narrator sounds very young.

Good book

This was a good quality book from start to finish. Couldn’t imagine Rory as a bad guy but you never know. I would recommend to friends !

Nikki Hunt does it again!

I binged this whole series and enjoyed them all! The remote northern setting was almost a character itself as Agent Hunter pushes herself to the max to bring justice every single time!

Ok but not the best in the Series

This book seemed short and with less action than others in the series. I hope the next one is better.
