Book Review of Robert B. Parker's Killing the Blues (Jesse Stone, Bk 10)

Robert B. Parker's Killing the Blues (Jesse Stone, Bk 10)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


The first journey into a Robert B. Parker character by another author, Killing The Blues by Michael Brandman keeps to the clipped, sarcastic dialogue of the originals. Jesse Stone's personal development appears to move at a faster pace than we've seen. Less turmoil over Jenn, quicker adjustment away from Sunny, the move to the house that appears in the Jesse Stone movies. "Coffee", the beverage, has a greatly reduced role despite being the first word appearing.
My one detraction would be the addition of the cat into what has always been a traditional dog setting.
