New novel from popular author Kimberley Woodhouse: What If the Temperature Falls 26 Below?

Fiction Meets Real World Reality in Chilling Suspense

“Perfect title. Perfect setting. Perfectly crafted story. I could NOT put it down. This one goes on your keeper shelf because you’ll want to read it again and again. Can’t wait for the next one!”
-Lynette Eason, best-selling and award-winning author

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.— Faithful readers and soon-to-be fans of Kimberley Woodhouse will be excited to see her newest release 26 Below, the very first book in the Alaskan Cyber Hunters series. Woodhouse brings a personal element to 26 Below, because it is based in Alaska, her favorite state, where she once made her home. She did extensive research for this book, which puts main characters Darcie and Jason in the middle of a cyber security nightmare. Woodhouse’s  son-in-law, a West Point graduate, who has been on post at the Army Cyber Institute was also part of her extensive research. She credits him with helping her get a true working view of cyber security, and the many amazing people who work behind the scenes to keep the country safe.  While 26 Below is fiction, many of the details are chillingly real to the times we are living in today.

What would happen if temperatures fell to 26 below? Woodhouse wastes no time in taking readers on a wild ride of suspense, and adventure. Main characters Darcie Phillips and Jason Myers must work together and find answers quick. Woodhouse  ties in characters with a  flawless story of the modern world, and the reality of cyberthreats.

“The idea for this story has been in my heart and mind since 2009. Over the years it has grown as technology advanced and the need for cyber security increased. I can’t wait to get 26 Below into readers’ hands.” Says Woodhouse.

26 Below is the perfect novel to toss in a spring or summer getaway bag. Woodhouse has written a book that will fascinate and challenge  all at the same time. Readers  won’t want to miss her Note from the Author at the end of the book, where she also includes a sneak peak at 8 Down, the next book in the Alaskan Cyber Hunters series coming Fall 2023.

Kimberley Woodhouse is the best-selling author of more than thirty books and novellas, including A Deep Divide, Bridge of Gold, and The Mayflower Bride, as well as the coauthor of the Heart of Alaska series with Tracie Peterson. Kimberley’s writing has earned a Carol Award, the Christian Market Novel of the Year, the Holt Medallion, and many others. A proud former resident of Alaska, she now makes her home in the Pennsylvania Poconos. Visit her at kimberleywoodhouse.com.
