Sea Change by Robert B Parker

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 first appears. Identifying the woman is just the first step in an emotionally charged case dealing with money, sex and distorted family ties. Somehow the combination of her past and present got her killed, but no-one is talking. Jesse has to speak for the dead, even if it puts him in harm's way.

'Parker writes old-time, stripped-to-the-bone, hard-boiled: school of Chandler..His novels are funny, smart and highly entertaining...There's no writer I'd rather take on an aeroplane'

-- Sam Leith * Daily Telegraph *

'...timing and pace are all. Parker knows what he's about, and Sea Change is a cracker'

-- Sam Leith * Daily Telegraph *

'In Sea Change glorious harbor scenes of sailboats and yachts gathered for Race Week are tarnished by the ugly crimes Jesse is investigating - the statutory rapes of local girls lured aboard the yachts by dirty old men from Florida and the murder of a woman involved in procuring the victims'

-- Marilyn Stasio * New York Times *

'If Spenser is the invincible knight, the timeless hero of American detective fiction, then Jesse Stone is the flawed hero of the moment, a man whose deficiencies define his humanity...you want to cheer'

* New York Times Book Review *

'Stone is a work in progress whose following is likely to increase as he continues to grow'

* Publishers Weekly *
