She was living with a dark secret. No one around her was safe.
Shivers tear through her, but she must be brave—for herself, for her future. She grips her coat tighter and steps into the night and the cold, pouring rain. Never to be seen again.
An ordinary Monday morning commute turns deadly when a gunman opens fire in the local train station. Detective Madison Knight rushes to the scene, but she’s too late for the victims. Two women were fatally wounded, including an expectant mother, and one is fighting for her life. But it’s the face of one of the dead that has Madison seeing a ghost from her past. She looks just like Madison’s college friend Courtney Middleton, who vanished over fifteen years ago. If it is her, where has she been all these years, and does her resurfacing have anything to do with the shooting?
Eyewitnesses say that a young woman triggered the incident, but both the shooter and the girl seem to have evaporated into thin air. Mounting evidence suggests they may be part of a drug-trafficking operation, the girl being one of their runners. But Madison’s not so sure the girl is the hardened criminal she appears to be.
As Madison races to track down the young woman, more people turn up murdered, and there’s still no sign of the girl. Is her body out there to find or is she on the run? If the latter, is it due to fear or guilt? Could it simply be that the shooting victims were caught in the crosshairs of organized crime? Madison’s not sure, but she can’t shake her niggling suspicion: what if it was something more than that?

“I definitely enjoyed reading this one! This book had suspense, action, intrigue, mobsters, drama, and great police work! I will definitely recommend reading this book! It was well worth reading!”
“I definitely enjoyed reading this one! This book had suspense, action, intrigue, mobsters, drama, and great police work! I will definitely recommend reading this book! It was well worth reading!”
“If you like a great mystery and thriller, you will love this one. Find a chair once you start because you will not want to stop until you finish the last page! Hang on for the ride of your life through lies and betrayal, the criminal underworld, police investigations and “ghostly” sightings (not literal ghosts, but you will understand when you read it)! Take a ride on the Detective Madison Knight Express Train!!”
“Detective Madison Knight is tenacious about solving her cases, and no one is going to stand in her way, not even her boss. Madison is a force to be reckoned with, especially when she feels strongly about what is going on in the case. I loved the relationship between her and Terry.”
“Well Carolyn Arnold never disappoints. This was my first book in this series (have read other series) [but] it didn’t take that long to get into the backstories of the main characters and the long-running plot in the background. This was very enjoyable read, and I am very glad I read it.”
“Girl on the Run is a really engaging mystery thriller. The story has so many different paths to be traced and so many layers unfold that it really captures the reader’s attention. As always, Carolyn Arnold’s precise writing detailing scenes, feelings, and places in a fast-paced way just pushes you to read because one must know what happens. There’s romance, crime, the mob, friendships under fire, leadership questioned, motherhood questioned, and above all a strong need for justice. The main characters are strong and empowered making the story full of appeal to be read. If you are a reader that enjoys all the stated above, this book is a must-read and you should invest your time because it’s very entertaining and makes excellent reading.”
“Girl on the Run was another fantastic, exciting, tense, riveting police procedural, so very well written by Carolyn Arnold. If you enjoy mysteries, police procedurals, a tough as nails cop, then you need to be reading this series, as Carolyn Arnold is one of the best in police procedure stories.”
“I always enjoy falling into a Carolyn Arnold police procedural and am pleased to refer them to friends and family. This was, as usual, an all-nighter. Retirement is read all night and sleep until noon. This is a series [that] keep[s] you returning to again and again, and with gratitude.”
“Great writing and interesting characters scored major points with me. The action, suspense, and twists and turns kept my interest and gets 5 stars from me. Highly recommend!!!”
“This story has you guessing right from the start. To discover who was behind the shooting, why the killing, how Madison and her partner followed the clues and what Madison’s hunch was, plus what it revealed, then you need to read this story.”
“It is a can’t-put-down mystery… What will happen and when? The protagonist is intriguing… The whole book is a story written by a talented author.”
“Q. Any fictional detective you admire the most? I would say I love and admire Detective Madison Knight. She is calm, straight forward and detail minded. Madison is also lucky to have Terry (her working partner) solving cases together! I could not put down the book before knowing the ending. Brilliant plot, those unexpected twists, and the weaving relationships among the characters of the book. Literally I wrote down the names and their linkage, to have a better understanding. Also I feel like I’m one of Detective Knight’s colleagues too! So much fun to do this! Here is another gripping and suspenseful story that I highly recommend to you all.”
“This was a thrilling mystery full of suspense. Madison and Terry are on the case, and are absolutely brilliant together. Madison is strong, smart, but not perfect, which just makes her more likeable…. There are enough twists to keep you guessing until the very end, and it’s so easy to get caught up in the pages that you easily lose track of time. I won’t give any spoilers, but I can confidently say you won’t see the ending coming! Highly recommend for mystery and thriller lovers.”
“Madison Knight is a fantastic protagonist. She’s also everything women should strive to be: a free thinker, confident in her own abilities and a dedicated hard worker. I have read all of the series to date, mainly because I love Madison as a character, and I’m happy to say that this latest to the series was as brilliant as the ones before. Completely gripping and a real page-turner. Highly recommended.”
“This is another gripping addition to this thrilling series! 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 action with wonderful world building that adds so much to the story. Such a thrilling read that I couldn’t put it down. Can’t wait to read more of these.”
“In this latest installment of the Detective Madison Knight series, Arnold crafts a wonderfully suspenseful story featuring one of my favorite literary characters. It’s a great read.”
“This is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller/mystery that I couldn’t put down. Loved the plot, the characters, and the ever-changing suspect list. Highly recommend.”
“Amazing twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat.”
“While Girl on the Run is the eleventh book in the Madison Knight series of novels by Carolyn Arnold it is only the third that I have had the pleasure of reading. Even coming into the series “mid-stream,” Arnold has crafted the series in such a way that newcomers can dive right in without feeling as if they are missing any major plot points. With Girl on the Run, the reader is treated to an action-packed thriller from the first page, and when one loose end seems to be tied up, another one unravels… I did not want to put it down, always looking for free moments where I could jump back in and find out what happens next. With an ending that I would not have seen coming, Girl on the Run is a definite page-turner that will satisfy the most seasoned reader.”
“So many intertwined threads to unravel in this thrilling book. A gripping page-turner which had me on the edge of my seat. Once again, a fantastic story from best-selling author Carolyn Arnold.”
“I love reading Carolyn’s books because of all the mystery and suspense that keeps you glued to the pages from the first moment that first word is read. I love the investigations and the murder scenes. I like that you are pulled into each story from the first page. I like that there is so much mystery that you can’t lay it down once you open it. I like trying to figure out whodunit. I like that you get the murder or the crime in the beginning but not whodunit or why. I love trying to figure out who the killer is. I like all the twists that are thrown at you from all directions. You think you are on the right track to figuring out who the killer is and, then bam, another twist slams you in the face and you are off again looking for who did it. I highly recommend Girl on the Run to anyone who likes a good book with lots of suspense and mystery. One-click your copy of Girl on the Run today and enjoy an intense ride full of mystery!”
“I am impressed by how Carolyn Arnold offers a new surprise and twists with each book! Her knowledge of police procedure is top-notch and I can count on it being easy to understand from a civilian point of view.”
