8 Down JustRead Takeover + Review Blitz

Welcome to the Takeover + Review Blitz for 8 Down by Kimberley Woodhouse hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

8 Down
8 Down 
Alaskan Cyber Hunters #2 
By Kimberley Woodhouse 

First off, this is the second book in the Alaskan Cyber Hunters series, and you absolutely must read 26 Below first! 

This book opens right at the conclusion of book one before jumping us forward in time. An unexplained problem with traffic lights results in a fatal collision. Okay, traffic lights have a problem; it's not unheard of. But it is something far worse—this is just the beginning of a cyber attack on the Alaskan capital city of Anchorage.

The man behind the cyberattack in Fairbanks has turned his attention to Anchorage, and his plans are pure evil. Teetering on the edge of genius and insanity, he has no qualms about taunting the ABI (Alaska Bureau of Investigation) and the state of Alaska. And he's leaving them clues in crossword puzzles.

Investigator Carrie Kintz is fairly new to the job, and she never expected to be given the role of lead investigator of such an important case. And the killer has decided to taunt her and call her out as his killings continue. Ouch!

Well, the ABI is understaffed and needs to call in a cybersecurity expert and Scott Patteson gets the call. A call that will test his skills. And his efforts aren't about to be ignored by their UNSUB.       

Get ready for some intense reading as the stakes are about to go higher. This book continues the edge of danger from the first book and this book will keep you turning the pages far too late into the night. Can they stop a killer who is using technology to do his killing? And how do you even attempt to think like a mind so twisted that it enjoys terrorizing its victims in their last moments?  Time is running out!                                                                                                                                                    
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.

About the Book

Title: 8 Down 
Series: Alaskan Cyber Hunters #2 
Author: Kimberley Woodhouse 
Publisher: Kregel Publications 
Release Date: February 20, 2024 
Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

8 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

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