Editorial Review:
Paradise, Massachusetts, police chief Jesse Stone faces the case of his career in the newest novel in the bestselling series. When a woman's partially decomposed body washes ashore in Paradise, Massachusetts, police chief Jesse Stone is forced into a case far more difficult than it initially appears. Identifying the woman is just the first step in what proves to be an emotionally charged investigation. Florence Horvath was an attractive, recently divorced heiress from Florida; she also had a penchant for steamy sex and was an enthusiastic participant in a video depicting the same. Somehow the combination of her past and present got her killed, but no one is talking-not the crew of the Lady Jane, the Fort Lauderdale yacht moored in Paradise Harbor; not her very blond, very tan twin sisters, Corliss and Claudia; and not her curiously affectless parents, living out a sterile retirement in a Miami high rise. But someone-Jesse-has to speak for the dead, even if it puts him in harm's way.

Rating:  - Another fun read by Parker
Just pick the book up and have fun. It has no philosophical message, although it does deal with a rather vile subject. I really do believe that Parker writes these Jesse Stone novels with Tom Selleck in mind, because you can literally hear Selleck deliver the lines, verbatum from the book. Love to meet Chief Jesse Stone and all the wonderful characters around him. Just pure fun!!!!!
Rating:  - More like Sea Sickness
All of the women in this novel are never seen in any way other than sexual. Supposedly professional female police officers are coming on to Jesse Stone over the phone before they even meet him and in conjunction with the story's theme, it makes you wonder if Parker and his editor are a little dense not to see the contradiction between Stone's repugnance at the treatment of the "victim women" in the story and his willing treatment of the "normal women." Jesse Stone needs to end his relationship with ... Read More
Rating: - Dump The Ex-Wife
Jesse Stone is a strong character. After seeing the TV movies with Tom Selleck, I picture him as I read each book. Tom Selleck is also a strong character, so......why does the author keep up this relationship with the ex-wife. To me it protrays a very weak person. I personally am getting tired of reading about the ex-wife in all the novels, one of whick took place 10 years after the divorce. I would have told Jenn to get lost a long time ago! How do you other readers feel?
Rating:  - Not the best book of the series by far
Not all that great. Wow did this one drag on! Lot's of story about Jesse and Jenn and whomever they are sleeping with. Lot's about Jesse's therapy. Lot's about Jesse's drinking or not drinking. Not a whole lot about the story. The story itself twists and turns with some dead ends and it seems to take forever to get to the conclusion.
I didn't think much of this one.
Rating:  - A quick and easy read
This was an easy book to read. The plot was good and easy to follow. The characters were also true to life as was the depiction of a rich, scum filled lifestyle.
The book also had short 'breezy' chapters which made it a quick read, something that I appreciate.
I would highly recommend this item.
