About this ebook

“J.A. Jance does not disappoint.”

—Washington Times

 

The Chattanooga Times calls New York Times bestselling author J.A. Jance, “One of the best—if not the best,” and this classic suspense masterwork featuring Seattle investigator J.P. Beaumont emphatically proves the point. In Taking the Fifth, a gruesome and very unusual murder plunges the intrepid Beau into a lethal cinematic nightmare. Michigan’s Flint Journal places Jance “in the elite company of Sue Grafton and Patricia Cornwell.” Taking the Fifth, now in a Premium Plus edition, is an ideal opportunity for fans of the author’s Sheriff Joanna Brady books to discover another side to the incomparable J.A. Jance.

Ratings and reviews

This is the first book I've read by this author and thought it was well written. JP Beaumont is a detective with the Seattle Police Department. He is trying to investigate a murder but stumbles upon another death. This has twists and turns you won't see coming.

Completely random that I stumbled upon and read this book. Now i have a whole new series to get through :)
