Night Passage  (Jesse Stone, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 8 more book reviews


Jesse Stone has left the LAPD behind and carried the burden of a recent divorce and a drinking problem cross-country to Paradise, Masschusetts. He is offered the job of police chief there--much to his surprise, since he was drunk at the interview. He soon finds out why, when he's caught between corrupt town leaders, a local militia group, and a murderer on the loose.
But Stone just might surprise his bosses--and do the job he was hired to do. Because he may have left his entire life behind in California. But he didn't leave his soul.
