A new review of Hunting Mariah – award-winning mystery/suspense/serial crime novel!

Posted on June 6, 2026 by jjspina

I recently received this lovely review on Goodreads of Hunting Mariah. I was thrilled to read it. Thank you, Shopia Burell, for taking the time to write this. I appreciate your kind words.

A review of the thriller book 'Hunting Mariah' featuring an image of the book cover and the reviewer, Shopia Burell. The review highlights the suspenseful and emotional aspects of the story.

I hope if you haven’t read this thriller yet that you will soon. It has a sequel that you will want to read to continue the story. They are both unputdownable novels if you love fast-paced thrillers with shocking endings.

JEMSBOOKS NOVELS FOR 18+ are available on Amazon as paperbacks, Audiobooks, and ebooks (Kindle) and Barnes & Noble as paperbacks.

Hunting Mariah – Kindle edition by Spina, JE. Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

Amazon.com: Mariah’s Revenge (Sequel to Hunting Mariah) eBook : Spina, JE: Books

his book as well as all my novels for 18+ are in three formats – paperback, kindle, and audiobook. This book has won a First Lines Contest with Authorsdb and a book award from Maincrest Media Book Awards for thrillers.

One reader mentioned that he was shocked after reading this book since he knew me as a children’s book author of sweet, innocent stories. This book is anything but sweet and innocent. It is my debut novel back in 2014 and came from a dream and something I saw on the news at the time my daughter was going to enter college.

I had many nightmares while I was writing this book and waited four years before picking it up again to continue the story. I hadn’t planned on writing a sequel, but readers requested that I do. They wanted to know what happened to Mariah afterward. The nightmares began again and continued until I completed the second book. The killer had his say and left me alone after that. Thank goodness! Sigh!

Thank you for stopping by to read this post and for your continued support. Please come back again where something is always brewing at JEMSBOOKS!
