It is late April 2016 when Beneath The Depths:
A Detective Bryon Mystery by Bruce Robert Coffin opens and attorney
Paul Ramsey is soon dead. The prominent local attorney, just hours after losing
a very high profile multi million dollar trial, has been fished out of Casco
Bay after being found by a local lobsterman in the hours before dawn as he
worked his traps. It is a cool morning in Portland, Maine, but the day will
heat up fast in more ways than one.
Portland Police Detective Sergeant John Byron and
his partner, Detective Diana Joyner, are first on the case. Sergeant Bryon has
good cause not to care for the flamboyant attorney, but that no longer matters.
With the man dead, he is a victim and deserves the full efforts of everyone on
the case. It does not take long before it is clear that this was no accident
and was, in fact, a murder. The suspect pool is massive and seems to grow
larger by the hour.
Beneath The Depths: A Detective Bryon
Mystery is the second book in the series that
began so well in Among The Shadows. Numerous plotlines, several
involving the personal lives of Bryon and members of his team, continue here
and serve as background to the main plotline as noted above. This is a series
that is not static. In this series, people age, situations and characters
evolve, and time relentlessly moves forward. The foundation for the series was
laid in the first book and here the building of what promises to be a complex
and entertaining series continues.
Like Among The Shadows, this second book, Beneath The Depths: A Detective Bryon Mystery, is a very good and strongly recommended. If it is not clear already, this is a series that needs to be read in order to be fully appreciated and enjoyed.

I recently received a print copy of this book, as
well as the next two, from the author with no expectation of a review.
