I have a short list of authors whose books I buy on pre-order, irrespective of the title or book description. Steve Cavanagh is on that list, together with Liane Moriarty, Joshilyn Jackson, Lee Child and Harlan Coben.for some reason, though (and I blame Amazon's Audible Books for this), I missed the publication of "Witness 8" by a whole month.
It took me ten seconds to get it from the library and one day to read. It's awesome. If you aren't familiar with the Eddie Flynn series, you can start with "Witness 8", the eighth book, but you might pick up on spoilers for some characters' story arcs. The series is definitely worth reading, but if you don't want to commit, start with this book or "Thirteen". You will fall in love with the main characters (and their dog), you will keep turning the pages as the plot sweeps you along. And when you finish "Witness 8", you will reach to read or re-read the earlier books.
Blurb:
Ruby Johnson is a nanny and maid to wealthy families in Manhattan's West 74th Street.
She knows their routines. Their secrets.
One night, on her way home, Ruby witnesses a neighbour's murder.
She knows the victim. She knows the killer.
She makes an anonymous call to the police and names the murderer.
But Ruby didn't tell the truth...
Because there's something wrong with Ruby Johnson.
Eddie Flynn, conman turned trial lawyer, must defend an innocent man accused of this terrible crime.
As Ruby's deadly game begins, one thing is certain.
It won't be the last murder this witness is involved in...
