The dentist was sitting bolt upright. Mouth opened wide. Stone-cold dead. There was no lack of suspects--the brutalized wife, the pretty, sexually abused dental assistant, an ex-con who was a very intimate friend of the widow. Homicide detective J P Beaumont knew he was closing in on his prey. But when a new piece of evidence surfaced, Beau discovered the true meaning of evil--and decided that justice would best be served if the killer went free.

Believe this is the 5th in series. I really liked the first three until proven guilty injustice for all, trial by fury. This one was a little slow but could have been that way because I read them all back to back. Might have needed a break. Other wise good book.
