about the book


The Cyber Solutions team has managed to stay one step ahead of the madman who has killed so many. From the original 26 Below cyberattack in Fairbanks to the 8 DOWN serial murders in Anchorage and beyond, they matched wits with the killer and stopped him from reaching his ultimate goals.

But final judgment is coming. And this time, there may be no defeating him.

David “Mac” McPherson has a personal stake in making sure this predator stays down for good. His family died in the cyberattack. Mac knows that God says “vengeance is mine”—but surely an exception can be made.

Surgeon Tracie Hunter is determined to stay sober and keep saving lives in Fairbanks, Alaska—even if it means being a little obsessive. After all, that same kind of determination is how she kept Mac alive after the murderer targeted him. And she won’t let Mac run himself into the grave looking for payback; he’s come to mean too much to her.

Then someone hacks into the system at Tracie’s previous job as a medical examiner and frames her in a murder cover-up. There’s no one else skilled enough to create a digital trail this incriminating—the killer is back in action, exploiting cybersecurity weaknesses to destroy lives. Can Mac stay focused and stop the next attack when his own vulnerability is exposed? Or will his need to make someone pay for his pain allow the maniac to pull ahead and win at last?

review

it's time for a wild conclusion to the alaskan cyber hunters series! the serial killer's still on the loose—and this time, he's so prepared that he just may be unstoppable.

david "mac" mcpherson lost his family to the killer's 26 below cyberattack, and he's determined to prevent others from suffering that same fate—and maybe, for a little vengeance, too. doctor tracie hunter winds up in the midst of the chaos, as she helps mac recover from a gunshot—and becomes one of the killer's targets, too.

there's a lot happening at every turn in 70 north. mac and the rest of the cyber solutions team seems to be playing catch-up, trying to track the madman's movements through a series of "distractions" leading up to his final act of mass destruction. i knew he couldn't win in the end, but i was on the edge of my seat to see exactly how they would stop him.

the events of 70 north are especially unnerving, given the amount of technology now integral to daily life. it seems like, at the hands of the wrong person, everything really could come crumbling down...

i will say, though i enjoyed 70 north, there were times i missed some of the greater context. the alaskan cyber hunters is one of those series that should be read in order, and i didn't realize that when picking up 70 north. i'm sure my enjoyment of this book would have been even more had i read 26 below and 8 down first... so make sure to read this series in order!

i received a complimentary copy from the publisher. i was not required to write a positive review, and all the opinions i have expressed are my own.


considerations:
—language: none
—spice: kisses only
—faith: mentions of God, prayer, and forgiveness
—content: murder, terrorist attacks, violence, loss of loved one
