AJ Rivers is an American thriller and mystery author that is best known for writing the "Emma Griffin FBI Mystery" series. She grew up in a small town and spent much of her days enthralled by mystery movies and novels. She showed signs of being a storyteller from a very young age as she had to make many of her own adventures. Since she was very much involved in media involving mysteries, she grew up fantasizing about one day becoming a crime fighter and crime solver. Rivers particularly loved Sherlock Holmes and asserts that he was one of her biggest inspirations for her novels. However, she would change her mind in college as she found a life in the trenches of law enforcement more gruesome than what her constitution could take. She thus made the decision to combine her love for mysteries and her love for storytelling into one by becoming an author.
Rivers wrote her debut novel "The Girl in Cabin 13" in 2019 and since then has never looked back become one of the most prolific authors in the genre. By 2020 she had more than eight titles in the "Emma Griffin FBI Mystery" series and one free-standing novel titled "Gone Woman." AJ Rivers has said that much of her inspiration comes from her passion for writing novels full of suspense and researching true crime stories that come with thrilling twists and turns. She was inspired to write her debut novel when she was reading an article about a woman that disappeared from her hometown never to be found again. She started asking what, why, and who questions, which led her to start writing down the twisted and dark story about the missing woman and the quest for justice for her. Her novels are known for their romance, suspense, and mystery elements. When she not working on her next mystery thriller, she can be found hiking with her dog or spending time with her husband.
AJ Rivers' "The Girl in Cabin 13" opens to Emma finding a corpse on her front yard. What is even more creepy is that her name is scrawled on the dead body's hand. this opens the door to uncovering a bizarre clue to a mystery that has dogged her life ever since she was a child. She is an undercover agent in the small town of Feathered Nest, where she had been charged with resolving the mystery of several disappearances that had left residents terrified. She believes she can find anything no matter how deep it is buried, even though events from her childhood may impact her effectiveness. As a child, her father had gone missing, her boyfriend had disappeared and her mother died mysteriously. Obsessed about resolving these mysteries, she had joined the Federal Bureau of Investigations with the hope of finding the truth about her childhood tragedies. But now she has what could be her biggest case yet as she feels she is being watched while working on Cabin 13. She had heard a soft knock on her door and opened it to find her name scrawled on a note in the hand of a dead man. She is still haunted by the events from the past and now needs to banish her demons if she is to ever have hope of solving the current mystery. It seems the idyllic town and the woods on its outskirts have murderous and dark secrets. She has to unearth them or else risk becoming a victim to them too.
Rivers' "The Girl That Vanished" opens to the disappearance of a ten-year-old girl while coming back home from camp. Things get even worse when Emma is informed that another child who is known to her has also disappeared. All her life, she has been haunted by tragedies, death and disappearances and obsessed with finding the truth behind it all, she had joined the FBI. It has been several months since she had resolved the mysteries in the small town of Feather Nest and decided to take a well needed holiday. But then she got a call from the sheriff that would change everything and derail all her plans. Young girls are disappearing from home and the numbers are slowly but surely rising with each passing day. Emma is forced to shelve her plans and head back home to deal with the demons from her past. But then she gets a mysterious package and she feels that she is being stalked and watched. In a town where nothing is ever as it seems, someone has been getting too close for comfort and she needs to find out who.
"The Girl in the Manor" by AJ Rivers tells the story of the sudden death of a girl on a farm and the seemingly connected death of a young child. Could it have been just a coincidence or could there be something more sinister at play? A beautiful young woman named Everly Zara was found dead in the bedroom of the house she shares with her fiancé on a huge manor. Her ankles are bound, and she is hanging naked. Someone took the trouble to scrawl some words on the body which is bizarre as he could simply have left a note. It is shocking news in a small town where everybody knows everybody. Could she have been so full of guilt and sadness from the death of the little boy that she took her own life? But the death is not as straightforward as one may think at first glance even if she was accused of such a terrible act. The more Emma investigates, the more realizes there is more to the case than she initially thought. It is not long before secrets from her past come back to haunt her and she realizes that her life is in danger unless she can unravel the truth. In the small town, nothing is ever as it seems and with a haunting past and a very complex mystery, she feels as if she is losing her mind. How far is she willing to go to find out what happened in her past and also that of deceased Everly Zara. While everything else is uncertain she is sure that one the truth comes to light, everything in her life will change forever.

A J Just read my first book (The Woman in the Woods) by you . Thoroughly enjoyed it. I have a question about on of the characters. What is Xavier's back story. A lot was said about him, but implying that the reader should know.? Thank you

I finished book 6 and started #7. Did I miss something? Emma didn't know her father was alive in book 6 but he's alive and living in DC in book 7. The uncle was still playing games in book 6 but book 7 he's apparently been jailed and then escaped. In book 6 Emma and Sam were just a couple in book 7 they are married. Did I miss something in between book 6 and book 7.

Is this too much for a 11 year old to read? She looks at Criminal Minds all the time. Just was trying to figure out if it was too much for her to process.
