Book Overview

Jesse Stone returns in this New York Times bestselling novel of death and deception from Robert B. Parker. Stiles Island is a wealthy and exclusive enclave separated by a bridge from the Massachusetts coast town of Paradise. James Macklin sees the Island as the ultimate investment opportunity: all he needs to do is invade it, blow the bridge, and loot the island. To realize his scheme, Macklin, along with his devoted girlfriend, Faye, assembles a crew of fellow ex-cons--all experts in their fields--including Wilson Cromartie, a fearsome Apache. James Macklin is a bad man, a very bad man. And Wilson Cromartie, known as Crow, is even worse. As Macklin plans his crime, Paradise police chief Jesse Stone has his hands full. He faces romantic entanglements in triplicate: his ex-wife, Jenn, is in the Paradise jail for assault, he's begun a new relationship with a Stiles Island realtor named Marcy Campbell, and he's still sorting out his feelings for attorney Abby Taylor. When Macklin's attack on Stiles Island is set in motion, both Marcy and Abby are put in jeopardy. As the casualties mount, it's up to Jesse to keep both women from harm.

Michael Marshall Smith is just amazing

By Thriftbooks.com User, May 31, 2009

This is MMS's first novel,which absolutely astounds. I'm such a fan of his because of the diversity and scope of his work. Even though his dark , witty voice always shines through, you never really know what kind of story you're going to have with him, only that you're mind will be blown, you will be entertained, and you will probably learn something, possibly unpleasant, and maybe about yourself...So anyway , anything by...

You won't forget this book

By Thriftbooks.com User, July 12, 2001

Gripping from the first page, this classy and unique combination of speculative fiction, adventure, and thriller will keep the reader's attention. Some of the author's ideas and insights are extremely thought-provoking. I originally took this book out of the library -- I enjoyed it enough that I ordered a copy for my personal library, and sent one on to a friend. Read _Spares_ next -- very good, very disturbing, and very...

I must say- this book is absolutely fabulous. It was very unexpected, and I envy Mr. Marshall his grasp of language and tone. I wish I could write like this! This fellow has got quite a grasp on life, and humor, and the way he gets it across is very unique. I loved this book so much, I plan to take it away to college with me. This book is like the tangible world of my imagination--- I wish I had a CloazValet....

Funny 'n' Nasty

By Thriftbooks.com User, April 21, 2000

Found this book at a used book store. It's the Britishversion, with the funky black cover, and the only things on it werethe title and the phrase "May we introduce Stark. Oh, and by the way, good luck...." I flipped it open to skim the first couple pages and it hooked me. I was laughing in the store. I had to buy it. It didn't disappoint me. It was a convoluted book, alternately funny, nasty, and tragic, with a cast of...

Weirder than Lovecraft, but with living characters

By Thriftbooks.com User, September 15, 1999

This is my favorite novel because it is so beautifully sad. I can't explain how this sadness is conveyed, however, so I will just point out its other merits. It is narrated by a character who, the reader gradually discovers, cannot be trusted. The meaning of entire portions of the novel is flip-flopped several times in light of previously withheld information suddenly dispensed by the protagonist. His story is too painful...
