Description

Family ties prove deadly in this brilliant Jesse Stone novel from New York Times bestselling author Robert B. Parker. 

The body in the trunk was just the beginning. 

Turns out the stiff was a foot soldier for local tough guy Reggie Galen, now enjoying a comfortable "retirement" with his beauti­ful wife, Rebecca, in the nicest part of Paradise. Living next door are Knocko Moynihan and his wife, Robbie, who also happens to be Rebecca's twin. But what initially appears to be a low-level mob hit takes on new meaning when a high-ranking crime figure is found dead on Paradise Beach. 

Stressed by the case, his failed relationship with his ex-wife, and his ongoing battle with the bottle, Jesse needs something to keep him from spinning out of control. When private investigator Sunny Randall comes into town on a case, she asks for Jesse's help. As their professional and personal relationships become intertwined, both Jesse and Sunny realize that they have much in common with both their victims and their suspects—and with each other.

    Another great Jesse Stone storyline. He battles his demons as he battles the bad people of Paradise, Mass. Great plot line with a believable cast of bad guys. From the main storyline bad guy mobsters to the secondary storyline bad guy form the cult, all very interesting.
