Witness 8

A Novel

De: Steve Cavanagh

Narrado por: Adam Sims

This riveting psychological thriller from Steve Cavanagh, author of the “twisty” (The New York Times) Kill for Me, Kill for You, asks: What if the witness was more dangerous 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 thriller from an author who is “the real deal” (Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

Loved Mr. Christmas & Ruby.

Unbelievable story, but Iove all Eddie Flynn books by Steve Cavanaugh. His writing is just great!

Enjoyable story telling

The Eddie Flynn series is one of my favorites—great storytelling, fast pacing and engaging characters make me look forward each installment. The only downside is that now I have to wait for the next one. I highly recommend this book but if you are new to Steve Cavanagh’s books, start with the first one.

Great plot

Steve Cavanagh writes tightly plotted thrillers. They are wonderfully gripping and a lot of fun. To this native New Yorker the setting seems like an alternative-reality New York, and if you can get past that you’d enjoy this and other novels. He’s an excellent storyteller.

The complexity of the story draws you in

Book is complex and fast moving, holds your attention! Read it front to back in one day.

Love the world building.

Each Cavanagh book builds a deeper world with characters you cheer for.
Huge fan. Love his books.

This one is very fun. Great story. Lots of fun subplots. If you love his books, this one will be at the top of the favorites list.

Good!!!

I love this book; he never disappoints. It kept me in suspense the entire time. Don't hesitate, purchase the book!

Mr. Christmas was a usual character.

The best ever of the brilliant Eddie Flynn Series! Well done, Steve! I’m glad the Harry was okay

Adventures of Eddy Flynn

Witness was not as good as previous novels in the series,
Looking forward to more in the series. The story could have been more developed, missed Eddie and his courtroom skills. Not many twists and turns as I have come to expect.
The positive was it's fast paced and a few new characters might be showing up in future novels.

Long and winded

Too many characters and too many plots that were not necessary. The story line was not cohesive.

Drawn out for nothing

Not much to day other than it was a long story without much depth or mystery to it. Wish this was an audible original so it could have been free.
