Description
"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 Jo Wright, author of The Lost Boys of Barlowe Theater

Reviews
Another page-turner of action, adventure, and thriller intrigue with a touch of romance thrown in on the side. Kimberley Woodhouse has created an amazing series that you'll want to read. With crossword puzzle clues, the Alaska Bureau of Investigation finds themselves up against a race to solve the mystery before it's too late. Kim has long been a favorite author of mine in historical romance, but she's proven herself a hard-to-beat author of contemporary romantic suspense.--Tracie Peterson, award-winning, best-selling author of the Pictures of the Heart series (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)
Bone-chilling! Kimberley Woodhouse nails it in this riveting story and its unique, thrilling concept! 8 Down is a ripped-from-the-headlines story that will make you think twice about using today's tech!--Ronie Kendig, best-selling, award-winning author of The Tox Files (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)
Do not pick up 8 Down unless you are ready to be taken on a roller-coaster ride of adrenaline. Filled with the twists of a demented mind and the race to catch him before more harm happens, I couldn't put the book down. There's also a sweet layer of romantic tension woven in. I loved every page.--Cara Putman, award-winning author of Lethal Intent and forthcoming The Vanished (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)
Kimberley has done it yet again. What an amazing, breath-stealing, knuckle-biting thrill of a ride. I highly recommend you snatch this one up and make arrangements to read it in one sitting!--Lynette Eason, award-winning, best-selling author of the Extreme Measures series (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)
Kimberley Woodhouse delivers another spine-tingling novel sure to send chills down readers' backs--and not just because it's set in Alaska! The suspense builds as a devious serial killer sends crossword puzzle clues to investigators who are intent on stopping him before anyone else dies. Clever, beautifully crafted, and completely addictive! I highly recommend 8 Down!--Nancy Mehl, author of the Ryland and St. Clair series (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)

What's an eight-letter word for 8 Down by Kimberley Woodhouse? If you said riveting or chilling or shocking, you would be right! I could hardly tear myself away from this story, fully absorbed in the characters and their race against a madman's whims. Woodhouse weaves suspense, romance, and faith into an engaging narrative that will keep you reading late into the night. If you thought the killer was ruthless in 26 Below, just wait until you see what he's up to now! I'll never look at an 8-down crossword clue the same way again!--Carrie Schmidt, ReadingIsMySuperPower.org (12/1/2023 12:00:00 AM)
