With Second Watch, New York Times bestselling author J. A. Jance delivers another thought-provoking novel of suspense starring Seattle investigator J. P. Beaumont.

Second Watch shows Beaumont taking some time off to get knee replacement surgery, but instead of taking his mind off work, the operation plunges him into one of the most perplexing mysteries he's ever faced.

His past collides with his present in this complex and thrilling story that explores loss and heartbreak, duty and honor, and, most importantly, the staggering cost of war and the debts we owe those who served in the Vietnam War, and those in uniform today.

The story really resonated with me as I grew up in that same era, watching friends and fellow students go off to Vietnam and come back in caskets or so mentally wounded that most were negatively impacted for the rest of their lives. I have enjoyed watching Beau evolve and become such a caring person.

Great story
