Coming Clean

One janitor. One murder. One chance to come clean.

In Coming Clean, Terry Persun delivers a smart, heartfelt mystery that proves it’s never too late to make a difference. Fred Lancing, a retired Air Force electronics expert turned janitor at a prestigious detective agency, stumbles into a murder case no one else wants. With nothing but curiosity and a crumpled case file, Fred dives into a tangled web of family secrets, deception, and a suspicious death that everyone insists was an accident.

As Fred investigates, he must confront his own past, strained relationships, and the limits of his quiet life. What begins as a personal quest becomes a gripping journey of justice, identity, and redemption.

Perfect for fans of character-driven mysteries like The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency and A Man Called Ove, Coming Clean is a poignant, page-turning whodunit with heart.
