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 page-turner from an author who is "the real deal" (Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

En sen fredagskväll i oktober tar New Yorks larmcentral emot två nästan identiska samtal. De kommer med knappt en minuts mellanrum och det är två systrar som ringer. Båda säger att deras pappa har mördats i sitt sovrum. Båda säger att det var den andra systern som gjorde det. Den döde mannen, Frank Avellino, var en framstående affärsman och före detta borgmästare i New York. Efter sig lämnar han en ansenlig summa pengar. Hans döttrar, Sofia och Alexandra, är varandras motsatser – och hatar varandra. Tre månader senare hålls rättegången i Manhattans domstol. Båda systrarna står åtalade för mord, och försvarsadvokat Eddie Flynn företräder en av dem. Ett stort arv väntar den som frias, och Eddie är övertygad om sin klients oskuld. Men vem är det egentligen som ljuger, och vem talar sanning?
