Description
Police chief Jesse Stone returns in the newest novel in Robert B. Parker's New York Times--bestselling series, and his newest case hits right at the heart of the Paradise police force.
Jesse Stone is back on the job after a stint in rehab, and the road to recovery is immediately made bumpy by a series of disturbing and apparently racially motivated crimes, beginning with the murder of an African American woman. Then, Jesse's own deputy Alisha--the first black woman hired by the Paradise police force--becomes the target of a sophisticated frame-up. As he and his team work tirelessly to unravel the truth, he has to wonder if this is just one part of an even grander plot, one with an end game more destructive than any of them can imagine.
At the same time, a mysterious young man named Cole Slayton rolls into town with a chip on his shoulder and a problem with authority--namely, Jesse. Yet, something about the angry twenty-something appeals to Jesse, and he takes Cole under his wing. But there's more to him than meets the eye, and his secrets might change Jesse's life forever.
Reviews
Does Robert Parker Proud
5By Widget186Have read all of Robert Parker’s writings. Reed Coleman does the Jesse Stone series proud with a tight plot, interesting twists and engaging writing. Was hesitant at first to invest, but glad I did. Will be gratefully supporting Coleman’s other stories. Thanks for a great read.Colorblind
5By boots saddleVery good, but unusual plots. Complex intrigues and twists, but very entertaining. Not a book to be read quickly, but certainly worth the effort to stick with.A racial primer
1By daniel d-lRobert Parker wrote wonderfully cryptic mysteries. Cole writes lessons. This book was disappointing and unnecessary other than to blandly waste paper, and this reader’s time and money.Colorblind
5By Fling WingAs an avid devotee of Robert B. Parker I can’t imagine anyone taking his place. But Reed Coleman comes as close as I’ve ever seen. This book drew me in just like the originals. Mr. Coleman is proving to be an excellent “Parker-style” storyteller. I look forward to his next offering.Great book
5By CAL4603I love Reed Farrel Coleman; done an outstanding job taking over for Robert Parker ! I have purchased every book he's written in the Jesse Stone series.
