A great page turner,
By
This review is from: Justice Denied (Paperback)
This is a J.P. Beaumont novel and is one of the better ones. The book mixes excellent characterisation of the main protagonists with a clever storyline which keeps you guessing up to the last few chapters. Jance's excellent writing kept me turning pages well after I should have put the book down and gone to bed!
Beau continues to work on Seattle's laughably named S.H.I.T. squad and as such is given a mixed bag of old and new cases to look into. Together with fellow detective and lover Mel, his cases weave in and out of the story and for a while you wonder how they are all going to tie together. On a personal note, Beau's relationship with fellow detective Mel develops and we see how events in his life before continue to shade his relationships moving forward.

Worth the wait,
By Karen Potts - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Justice Denied (J. P. Beaumont Mysteries) (Hardcover)
It seems that there is more time between installments of the J.P. Beaumont series than there used to be but, as usual, this book is worth the wait. J.P. is given a top-secret special assignment by his boss which involves the murder of an ex-con who had been released from jail when DNA evidence exonerated him. Meanwhile his live-in girlfriend, Mel, has been given her own assignment in investigating released prisoners who have died under suspicious circumstances. Things get tense when J.P. is forced to keep his case a secret from Mel and their relationship goes through its ups and downs in this book. J.A. Jance is a master at constructing plots and she also excels at tying up all the loose ends at the climax of her novels. It also amazes me how a female author gets into the mind of her male lead character and makes him so believable. Hopefully, this long-running series will continue for many more years.

Justive Denied,
By Ginger L Hobbs - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Justice Denied (J. P. Beaumont Mysteries) (Hardcover)
My favorite of all of Jance's books are the Beaumont series, but this was not very entertaining. It read like the end of the career of J P Beaumont. There was a lot of back history of the family and not very much action. I had the feeling that the author was trying to put an end to this series.

Justice is Served,
By Barbara Kay - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Justice Denied (J. P. Beaumont Mysteries) (Hardcover)
First of all I want to say that I have met J A Jance in the author/reader book signing and reading events. I had the opportunity to speak with her at length at a Walden Books store when she was autographing her poetry book. She is a real person and it was a pleasure to talk with her and perhaps one of the reasons I am a #1 fan of all Jance's novels. Having lived in Seattle (1970-2002) I read the books and visualize the area, the restaurants from the Doghouse to the El Gaucho and fisherman's terminal, and the freeways and the commutes. I can tell you that inside knowledge adds to the charm of the novels but it is not necessary to get caught up in the motion, the characters, the developments of the story line. I am so tickled that Beau and Mel have finally made it official and I cheered that they got married in Vegas and Mel's wedding gift brings tears to the eyes. The story lines in this one are quite intricate and there are many threads that come together in a believable way. I was totally hooked from the beginning and I was very satisfied in the way it all came together. This was a very satisfying novel and I give it a very definite 5 stars. J A Jance has done it again. Thank you.
