Seattle investigator J. P. Beaumont can be attracted into an interesting, and shockingly personal, case with this superb tale of suspense from NYC Times bestselling writer J. A. Jance.

Previous Seattle homicide cop, J. P. Beaumont, is certainly learning to benefit from the fresh realities of retirement-doing morning crossword puzzles with a roaring fire place; playing frisbee along with his brand-new dog; having calm lunches with his still functioning wife. But his past comes calling.

When a long ago acquaintance, Alan Dale, turns up in Beau’s doorstep with a newborn infant at hand and asking for help locating his missing girl, Beau finds himself faced with an investigation that will change his own life upside down simply by dragging his none-too-stellar earlier onto a roller-coaster trip that may derail his serene present. It turns out that, also in retirement. murder is still the name of J. P. Beaumont’s game.
