Reviews

“Bestseller Jance’s enjoyable 25th J.P. Beaumont mystery…J.P. is a fully developed character, and his frequent calls to [his wife] Melissa to discuss the case are both touching and insightful. They make a good team even at a distance. New readers will happily join the ranks of longtime fans.” - Publishers Weekly on Nothing to Lose

“Brilliant....[Jance] has crafted a mystery that Hillerman would be proud of and that her fans will love.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Queen of the Night

“Jance offers that rare—and welcome—hybrid: the suspense novel with heart…[She] is at the top of her game and just about irresistible.” - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on Queen of the Night

“Fans of police procedurals with a Southwestern flair will love Joanna’s determination to manage marriage, motherhood, and policing in this 19th Joanna Brady book.” - Library Journal on Missing and Endangered

“The two parallel cases provide plenty of action, while keeping a premium on character studies and violence to a minimum. Once again, the compassionate, intelligent Joanna balances a busy home life and a complex job with aplomb. This long-running series consistently entertains.”  - Publishers Weekly on Missing and Endangered
