Another really good book in this series. I always get sucked into these books, and I can't wait to see what happens next. I am a huge fan of Sister Anselm. She's a whippersnapper! This story got my ire going for sure.Overall rating: 4.5/5.0 stars.Reviewed for Affaire de Coeur Magazine for the March ...
~~Moved from GR~~ Edge of Evil by J.A. Jance This was my first J.A. Jance book. I also plan for it to be my last. Despite my low rating, I have no violent outrage; it just irritated me in a multitude of different ways. This was mainly due to my own personal outlook: this book definitely has a ba...
Moving Target was a very engrossing book that lives up to the momentum implied in its title. This is my second read by JA Jance and in this Ali Reynolds series, and I am hooked. I'll be looking for more by this author in my library audiobook section. I think this author will make for good listening ...
Jance takes us back in time to relate how beau became a detective and the “one that got away.” Beau’s first homicide was never solved. Now, in the present, Beau revisits that crime. Does he solve it? I won’t tell, but you enjoy the juxtaposition of past and present in this tale of crime and aging kn...
This was more of an experience than a read. The title refers to Beau's second watch, his experiences and memories with things from his past left unfinished... brought on by pain meds and anesthesia based dreams. I had my own second watch, things I had left somewhat unfinished due to my ex-husband, o...
Original review posted at A Date with a Book When I received a request from the author to read her new J.P. Beaumont novella, I was honored. I have read several of the J.P. Beaumont novels, definitely not enough, and thoroughly love the character.The fact that it is a novella, or short story, does...
Having never read anything prior by the author this flashback in time was an engaging introduction to J.P. and also a finely crafted story which really showed readers how being in the wrong place at the wrong time would have ended a perfectly good detectives career if it were not for the persistenc...
This is a short story/novella in the J.P. Beaumont series, which gives us a view into Beau's early career. It was enjoyable in the same rather low-key way of the rest of the series. There's no real mystery, but the way Beau finds to fight for a friend and get around an inflexible Internal Affairs ...
I read this book for two reasons. The first to see if 26 authors could write a mystery serial novel that made sense, was entertaining, and remained true to the mystery genre. The second was to expose myself to a variety of mystery writers that I have not read.I was very satisfied with the compilat...
There are a ridiculous number of dead bodies piling up in this book, but that is nothing compared to all of the characters who were given up for adoption as infants. It makes one’s heap spin keeping track of all the characters’ ever shifting relationships with one another. Murders aside, everything ...
