Summary
When an unknown man is found murdered in Paradise, Jesse Stone will have his hands full finding out who he was - and what he was seeking.
When a body is discovered at the lake in Paradise, Police Chief Jesse Stone is surprised to find he recognizes the murder victim - the man had been at the same AA meeting as Jesse the evening before. But otherwise, Jesse has no clue as to the man's identity. He isn't a local, nor does he have ID on him, nor does any neighboring state have a reported missing person matching his description. Their single lead is from a taxi company that recalls dropping off the mysterious stranger outside the gate at the mansion of one of the wealthiest families in town....
Meanwhile, after Jesse survives a hail of gunfire on his home, he wonders if it could be related to the murder. When both Molly Crane and Suitcase Simpson also become targets, it's clear someone has an ax to grind against the entire Paradise PD.
Critic reviews
"One of the best crime thrillers hitting stores this year...and quite possibly the best novel set in one of Parker’s universe since the iconic author passed away." (The Real Book Spy)

AWFUL. The author should be ashamed.
Robert B Parker was a fantastic engaging author, he will be spinning in his grave having his name attached to this book. I’m stunned that the Parker estate allowed it.
If you’ve followed Jesse Stone in these books then you know the level of swearing in this story is disgusting and completely wrong for this character.
Robert B Parker was a great wordsmith, he didn’t have to resort to swearing and foul language to convey his stories.
This book is a waste of time, although James Naughton gives his usual great performance, even he seems ‘off’ in this. I hope Mike Lupica NEVER writes any other book in any Parker series.
Don’t waste your credit/money.
