ABOUT THE BOOK

A Jesse Stone Novel

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 at first appears. Identifying the woman is just the first step in what proves to be a difficult and emotionally charged investigation. Florence Horvath was an attractive, recently divorced heiress from Florida; she also had a penchant for steamy sex and was an enthusiastic participant in a video depicting the same. Somehow the combination of her past and present got her killed, but no one is talking - not the crew of the Lady Jane, the Fort Lauderdale yacht moored in Paradise harbour; nor her very blonde, very tanned twin sisters, Corliss and Claudia; and not her curiously affectless parents, living out a sterile retirement in a Miami high rise. But someone - Jesse - has to speak for the dead, even if it puts him in harm's way.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM

'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'
- Sunday Telegraph

'Robert B Parker is one of the greats of the American hard-boiled genre'
- Peter Guttridge, The Guardian

'Why Robert Parker's not better known in Britain is a mystery'
- Daily Mirror

'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

'timing and pace are all. Parker knows what he's about, and Sea Change is a cracker.'
- Sam Leith, Daily Telegraph
