Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Fans will be disappointed by a lack of imagination in Jance's ( Until Proven Guilty ) latest mystery featuring J. P. Beaumont, hard-drinking detective. When he checks into an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center in rural Arizona, the bad-tempered Beaumont is paired with an annoying roommate, Joey Rothman, who sneaks out after curfew to deal drugs and seduce girls. After spying his own visiting teenaged daughter smooching with Joey, Beaumont waits up for him with fists bared, joined by the irate father of a young patient whom Joey has impregnated. When Joey's body is found hanging from a tree, apparently plugged dead with Beaumont's gun, the police peg Beaumont along with the pregnant girl's father as their prime suspects. The two men team up with Joey's mother to find the killer. Beaumont, throughout, spouts cliches: "Her look of utter abandonment sliced through my heart like a hot knife." Despite a few dramatic mountainside car chases and fights with machine-gun-toting drug thugs, Jance's plot is plodding, disjointed and predictable.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love JP Beaumont!, Aug 3 2003
By MrsCDWhite (Kirkland, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Minor In Possession (Mass Market Paperback)
As with all the other tales of Beau, we are taken on another thrill ride not knowing were we will come out, or in what shape.
Start with JP first Book so you understand him.
Then read all his stories in succession.....that's one read you will not be disappointed in.

5.0 out of 5 stars J.P. Beaumont in the desert, Jun 14 2000
By Karen Potts (Lake Jackson, Texas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Minor In Possession (Mass Market Paperback)
This book offers quite a change of scenery for fans of the J.P. Beaumont series. The Washington born-and-bred policeman ends up in a rehab center which is a real contrast to his usual surroundings in the Pacific Northwest. His discoveries of things such as snakes and flash floods offer comic relief from the investigation into the death of his teen-aged roommate. In this book we also catch glimpses of his ex-wife and children, and he seems a bit more human as he goes through the rehab process. If you like Beaumont, you'll probably like this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Past and Present, Jan 30 2000
By Tina Fox (Bremerton, Washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Minor In Possession (Mass Market Paperback)
One of my favorite Beaumont mysteries. Perhaps I was thrilled in my recognition of landmarks, as I grew up in Cochise County not far from Montezuma Pass. Jance intrigues her dedicated readers not only through an active storyline, but with real places. As I currently reside in the Puget Sound, this one hit the jackpot with me! Pinch me, is this really fiction? Maybe I'll head over to Seattle PD just to make sure Beau really isn't there!
