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.
