Publisher's summary

The bloody corpses in the broom closet of a Seattle School District building looked like a classic crime of passion, but 20-year-old clues point J. P. Beaumont to something much more sinister.

The worst and most annoying reader in my life.

I have no idea if the story was any good. The reader was the worst I have ever experienced. The loud clipped voices he used, far too often, were not like any reader I have ever heard. Shame on Audible for employing him.

Readers noise

I loved the story as I have all the JA Jance books. What was annoying were the small noises the reader was making. It was pretty much constant and very much like gum chewing. It was very distracting. Nice voice tho

Payment in Kind

Thanks, enjoyed this. JA Jance is one of my favorite authors. Very convenient to listen on my air pods while gardening.

Importance of forgiveness

This was a terrific mystery, lots of twists and turns. Also liked the attention paid to the different characters and their feelings.

Re: Love It!

I have been a big J. A. Jance fan for a long time—especially her J. P. Beaumont series. This book is no exception.

Well Done--Enjoyed

Interesting and well performed. Plot only somewhat predictable. Well enough written that I have purchased several other J A Jance books.

Excellent JP Beaumont, but the recording

Loved it, if your going through the series I don't need to tell you to continue enjoying it. But Audible needs to seriously question the costs of these older recordings. I hate to complain but the audio book voice overs monitor headphones give so much feedback. They are obviously turned up to high in reference to the recording channel. Maybe tech talk to you but an easy fix....
