This
is a satisfying though very short novella. The aspect I liked the
best about it was that much of it takes place on Whidbey Island. As a
native, it is always fun to read of familiar places. (Yes, that is the same Deception Pass Bridge on the cover of the novella that is in my banner above.)
The plot is a
good one with Beaumont retired but helping solve cold cases in a
volunteer capacity. The way he and his wife, now Chief of Police for
Bellingham, solve the case is interesting. This novella is a good
continuation of the Beaumont series as it explores his current
thoughts and feelings, especially about dogs.
The
last quarter of this novella is a sneak preview of the coming full
length novel featuring Beaumont.
My
rating: 4/5 stars.

received a complimentary digital copy of this novella from the
publisher. My comments are an independent and honest review.
