Standard hard boiled detective story I read since the author was visiting the library. Gritty, and I liked how the attention to little details and old fashioned research won the day. ( ) A body is found with strange puncture wounds on his forehead. Detective Beaumont’s investigation leads him on a merry chase that involves a beautiful woman - no surprise there. Drugs are involved, and it doesn’t take Beau long to realize that someone has been set-up to take the fall for the murder. Finding the evidence to clear her takes a bit longer. This may not be great literature, but it is a fast read and entertaining. I find the character of Beau’s partner to be quite interesting, and this story leaves me wondering what the future holds for him. What fun it was to go into the past of J. P, Beaumont. Life doesn't change much; murder, drugs. But OMG no cell phones and using cassette tapes, how funny. This was brought back because it will tie into her newest Beaumont book. I love this series. He's such a great guy but with all the normalcy of all of us who do embarassing things. Yeah ok he drives a Porsche so he's not quite like us but I love his heart. This was a fast read and a fun time. Another well-written episode in the life of J P Beaumont, hard drinking Seattle homicide detective. Good police procedural. I've read others in the series, so this was a fill in. It's interesting to come back and see this earlier offering. Jance has gotten better in later books, and Beau has certainly grown up. Still a good read with an interesting case. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
