Book Review of Robert B. Parker's Blind Spot (Jesse Stone, Bk 13)

Robert B. Parker's Blind Spot (Jesse Stone, Bk 13)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


Blind Spot is a dismal addition to the Jesse Stone series. Gone is the quick wit that drives the normally dialog driven Robert B. Parker novels.
As a longtime baseball fan and manager, I looked forward to a book that touched on Jesse's past exploits in the game. By the halfway point I was already put off of any further heavy handed mention of the game. Did everyone play minor league ball? Enough with the ball in the glove in his office.
We all understand that Robert B. Parker is gone. These books just allow us to keep his characters a little longer. But not at the level Reed Farrel Coleman drops us to.
