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
*Daily Telegraph*
...timing and pace are all. Parker knows what he's about, and Sea
Change is a cracker
*Daily Telegraph*
In Sea Change glorious harbor scenes of sailboats and yachts
gathered for Race Week are tarnished by the ugly crimes Jesse is
investigating - the statutory rapes of local girls lured aboard the
yachts by dirty old men from Florida and the murder of a woman
involved in procuring the victims
*New York Times*
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*
Stone is a work in progress whose following is likely to increase
as he continues to grow
*Publishers Weekly*
