Another excellent book in the Beaumont series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I really enjoyed this book. Like the others in the Beaumont series, this was a quick read. The plot was entertaining. Just when you thought you knew who the killer was there was another slight twist. I also enjoyed learning more about J.P. Beaumont as the story was peppered with a few more details about his character. I would definately recommend this book.
Solid entertainment

First I must say in response to an earlier review, no the villian is not revealed early on! I don't know how she knew, but I didn't know until the very end! This was a good book and a fast pace read. I'm not usually a big mystery reader, but I really like Jance's style and most of all I like J.P. Beaumont. He is a great main character.
Entertaining reading

In this addition to this series, J.P. has returned from a rehab center in the Arizona desert to resume crime-fighting in Seattle. During a very unusual blizzard, a double homocide occurs at the Seattle School District's administrative offices. The head of Labor Relations and a security guard are found murdered in a closet. More than the murder victims come out of the closet as J.P. discovers some family secrets of the deceased. The reader is led through twists and turns in the plot until the true identity of the killer is uncovered. This is vintage Jance!
Jance Does It Again!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
J.A. Jance's "Payment in Kind" is a great story. Again featuring one of the author's main protagonists, J.P. Beaumont, Jance weaves a spellnbinding trail that keeps the reader on edge and suspecting almost all of the characters in the story at one point or another; just as you are absolutely sure you know who did it -- you discover it wasn't them! Keeps you moving to the very last chapter. One of the finest mystery writers today; a wonderful charcter (literally and figuratively) in Beaumont!
