Reed Farrel Coleman
- "Coleman
- keeps
- the
- characters
- and
- the
- somber
- atmosphere
- but
- makes
- the
- book
- his
- own
- stylistically."

- Chief
- Jesse
- Stone
- is
- back
- in
- the
- remarkable
- new
- installment
- of
- the
- New
- York
- Times–bestselling
- series.It’s
- been
- a
- long
- time
- since
- Jesse
- Stone
- left
- L.A.,
- and
- still
- longer
- since
- the
- tragic
- injury
- that
- ruined
- his
- chances
- for
- a
- major
- league
- baseball
- career.
- When
- Jesse
- is
- invited
- to
- a
- reunion
- of
- his
- old
- Triple-A
- team
- at
- a
- hip
- New
- York
- city
- hotel,
- he
- is
- forced
- to
- grapple
- with
- his
- memories
- and
- regrets
- over
- what
- might
- have
- been.Jesse
- left
- more
- behind
- him
- than
- unresolved
- feelings
- about
- the
- play
- that
- ended
- his
- baseball
- career.
- The
- darkly
- sensuous
- Kayla,
- his
- former
- girlfriend
- and
- current
- wife
- of
- an
- old
- teammate
- is
- there
- in
- New
- York,

- otherworldly
- beauty
- with
- secret
- regrets
- of
- her
- own.
- But
- Jesse’s
- time
- at
- the
- reunion
- is
- cut
- short
- when,
- in
- Paradise,
- a
- young
- woman
- is
- found
- murdered
- and
- her
- boyfriend,
- a
- son
- of
- one
- of
- the
- town’s
- most
- prominent
- families,
- is
- missing
- and
- presumed
- kidnapped.Though
- seemingly
- coincidental,
- there
- is
- a
- connection
- between
- the
- reunion
- and
- the
- crimes
- back
- in
- Paradise.
- As
- Jesse,
- Molly,
- and
- Suit
- hunt
- for
- the
- killer
- and
- for
- the
- missing
- son,
- it
- becomes
- clear
- that
- one
- of
- Jesse’s
- old
- teammates
- is
- intimately
- involved
- in
- the
- crimes.
- That
- there
- are
- deadly
- forces
- working
- below
- the
- surface
- and
- just
- beyond
- the
- edge
- of
- their
- vision.
- Sometimes,
- that’s
- where
- the
- danger
- comes
- from,
- and
- where
- real
- evil
- lurks.
- Not
- out
- in
- the
- light—but
- in
- your
- blind spot.
