8 Down

An amazing, breath-stealing, knuckle-biting thrill of a ride!" --Lynette Eason, award-winning, best-selling

suspense author

bodies down.

8 more lives at stake.

Investigator Carrie Kintz is new blood with the Alaska Bureau of Investigation in Anchorage. But with a serial

killer on the loose, there's no easing into the job. It's sink or swim. The only clues to help law enforcement stop

this madman are the taunts he drops into crossword puzzles across the country--always in the same 8 DOWN

position.

Carrie is desperate to prove her worth to the force and the community by catching the killer. But when she

discovers signs that these deaths are just the tip of the iceberg in a frighteningly elaborate cyberattack, it's time

to admit she needs help.

Calling in security specialist Scott Patteson for his expertise seems like the right move--until Carrie realizes

that he may be a dangerous distraction for her heart. With her faith fading in the face of horror and uncertainty

and her career in danger of ending, this is no time for flirtation.

But with a killer who is determined to prove that he's smarter than everyone else, it may be impossible to fight

both the madman and their feelings for each other . . .

"Put on your parkas as we head into a cold world of cybercrime, and hang on for the ride! Kimberley Woodhouse

once again takes us on a nail-biter of a ride, and you won't want to quit until you've read the last page!" --Jaime
