Sins of the Fathers: a J.P. Beaumont Novel
Former Seattle homicide cop J. P. Beaumont is learning to enjoy retirement: doing morning crossword puzzles by a roaring fireplace; playing frisbee with his new dog; having quiet lunches with his still working wife. But then his past comes calling: when a long ago acquaintance shows up on Beau’s doorstep with a newborn infant in hand, Beau finds himself faced with an investigation that will turn his own life upside down. It turns out that, even in retirement, murder is still the name of J. P. Beaumont’s game.
