Name Withheld — J.A. Jance

Nobody is grieving over the death of Donald Wolf, a biotechnology corporation executive whose numerous criminal activities included illegally trading industrial secrets...and rape. Too many people, in fact, are almost too eager to take responsibility for his murder.

At the start of a brand new year, Seattle Homicide Detective J.P. Beaumont has his own life-shattering problems to worry about - from the imminent death of an ex-wife to trumped-up charges of child abuse. But the justly-slain body floating in Elliott Bay is pulling Beau back to the job - leading him into a deadly morass of jealousies, personal betrayals, more corpses and corporate double-dealings...and closer to a killer he doesn't really want to find.
