The newest thrilling Beaumont suspense novel from New York Times
bestselling author J. A. Jance, in which Beaumont is approached by a
visitor from the past and finds himself drawn into a missing person's
case where danger is lurking and family secrets are exposed.
Years ago, when he was a homicide detective with the Seattle PD, J. P.
Beaumont's partner, Sue Danielson, was murdered. Volatile and angry,
Danielson's ex-husband came after her in her home and, with nowhere else
to turn, Jared, Sue's teenage son, frantically called Beau for help. As
Beau rushed to the scene, he urged Jared to grab his younger brother and
flee the house. In the end, Beaumont's plea and Jared's quick action
saved the two boys from their father's murderous rage.
Now, almost twenty years later, Jared reappears in Beau's life seeking
his help once again--his younger brother Chris is missing. Still haunted
by the events of that tragic night, Beau doesn't hesitate to take on the
case. Following a lead all the way to the wilds of wintertime Alaska, he
encounters a tangled web of family secrets in which a killer with
nothing to lose is waiting to take another life.
