The opioid epidemic has reached Paradise, and
Police Chief Jesse Stone must rush to stop the devastation
in the latest thriller in Robert B. Parker's New York
Times-bestselling series.
When a popular high school cheerleader dies of a
suspected heroin overdose, it becomes clear that the opioid
epidemic has spread even to the idyllic town of Paradise. It
will be up to police chief Jesse Stone to unravel the supply
chain and unmask the criminals behind it, and the
investigation has a clear epicenter: Paradise High School.
Home of the town's best and brightest future leaders and its
most vulnerable down-and-out teens, it's a rich and
bottomless market for dealers out of Boston looking to
expand into the suburbs.
But when it comes to drugs, the very people Jesse is
trying to protect are often those with the most to lose. As
he digs deeper into the case, he finds himself battling
self-interested administrators, reluctant teachers,
distrustful schoolkids, and overprotective parents . . . and
at the end of the line are the true bad guys, the ones with
a lucrative business they'd kill to protect.
Praise for the Jesse Stone series
'Exceptional... Coleman stays faithful to the spirit of
Parker's characters without sticking to the status quo' -
Publishers Weekly
'The sixth novel by Coleman in the Jesse Stone series,
based on characters created by Robert B. Parker, may be his
best' - Booklist
