Nothing to Lose by J.A. Jance

Retired cop J.P. Beaumont still blames himself for his partner, Sue Danielson's death. When her son, Jared, asks for Beaumont's help in finding his younger brother, Christopher, who's missing, he readily agrees to go to Homer, Alaska where Christopher was last seen. After he arrives, Beaumont discovers that Christopher disappeared over ten years ago and that there's a good chance he is no longer alive. Nothing to Lose recounts Beaumont's investigation to bring closure to Jared and his family. It will be published in February.
