This riveting psychological thriller from master of twists Steve Cavanagh, author of the "unguessable and unputdownable" (Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author) Kill For Me, Kill for You, asks: What if the witness was more twisted than the killer?
Something is wrong with Ruby Johnson.

A former resident of the ultra-elite Manhattan upper class, Ruby now works as a maid in the type of houses she used to live in. Unassuming, she sees everyone's dirty secrets from the inside of their beautiful, renovated brownstones. But when Ruby witnesses a murder, she has wicked plans in mind that don't involve telling the authorities the truth.

Eddie Flynn, streetwise ex con-artist-turned-defense attorney, is the only lawyer in New York City willing to take on hopeless cases. And none is more hopeless than John Jackson's—the gun that killed his neighbor found, with Jackson's DNA, in his own home. Flynn and his unconventional team will need to use every trick they know to keep an innocent man from being locked up. But to save his client's life, Eddie must first protect his own, as the scariest organized criminals in the city are out for his head.

Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Megan Miranda, Witness 8 is a fresh knockout page-turner from an author who is "the real deal" (Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

      Eddie, formerly a con man, is now a defense lawyer. He usually takes on clients who can't find another lawyer, but this situation is a little different. Dr. John Jackson is accused of murdering his neighbor; Jackson is wealthy, he's represented by a high-priced legal firm, and they have recommended Eddie take lead on the case. Almost immediately after he says he'll do it, the murder weapon is found in Jackson's home, with his DNA on it. Eddie's instincts, honed through years of playing other people, tell him something is fishy--but he's not prepared for what he finds out. Cavanagh's first Flynn novel, The Defense (2015), was a wonderful introduction to Eddie and his unique investigative methods, and each subsequent book has opened up new windows into Eddie's past life; he's become a complex and immensely likable fellow, and we find ourselves actually worrying about him as, here, he might for the first time be disastrously out of his depth. A terrific addition to a series that mystery fans should consider a must-read.
