3.25.2025 - Witness 8

Witness 8 by Steve Cavanagh

Many thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster Atria Books for gifting me a digital ARC of this wonderful book by Steve Cavanagh.  All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars!

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.  She's mostly invisible to those around her, but she sees everything.  When she witnesses a murder, she has a different plan involved rather than telling the truth.  Enter Eddie Flynn, streetwise ex con-artist-turned-defense attorney, now tasked with representing John Jackson - the one charged with the neighborhood murder.  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.

A new book in this series featuring Eddie Flynn, conman turned defense lawyer, is always something to look forward to.  Eddie is nothing if not loyal, and I love his allegiance to his friends and his clients - especially since he's a defense attorney who only represents those he feels are innocent.  This installment had lots of different POV, but the story kept me glued.  I like legal thrillers, and it was fun to see Eddie be once again one step ahead of the prosecution.
