Beau is called to investigate a rather gruesome murder. A man’s boat is set on fire, with him handcuffed to a table after being tortured, and he burns to death. Beau is surprised that the people connected to the victim are some old classmates he hasn’t seen in decades. Digging deeper, he

discovers the current crime has its roots in Nazi Germany. It’s a well told mystery, gripping and intriguing.
