"While this was definitely a quick read, it was still great. The pace was fast, the situation interesting, and the book made you feel like you had stumbled onto a fictionalized account of a case history. Jesse Stone met Kelly Cruz and that also made for a more interesting plot. Loved the story. "

    " The first Jesse Stone novel starts out with a disgusting crime. But I liked Jesse Stone and did want to read other of his mysteries when I finished. Same warning as spenser. Language, Violence. "

    " I don't want to give anything away, but there's a fair dose of depraved sexual behavior among the rich and clueless. I have to say that I'm a bit puzzled by Jesse's obsession with his ex-wife that fuels his jealousy and alcoholism. But then he's trying to figure it out as well. It all almost drove me to drink. "

    " A Jesse Stone mystery, Sea Change gives the satisfaction all Parker's books provide. Since Tom Selleck started playing Jesse Stone that's what I see while I'm reading, although I don't think the Stone Parker created was supposed to be as big as Selleck. Nice, relaxing read "
