Police Chief Jesse Stone is back in a new installment of the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling series, following DAMNED IF YOU DO. When Jesse is invited to a reunion of his old Triple-A team at a hip New York city hotel, he is forced to grapple with his memories and regrets over what might have been. Jesse left more behind him than unresolved feelings about the play that ended his baseball career. The darkly sensuous Kayla, his former girlfriend and current wife of an old teammate is there in New York, too. But Jesse's time at the reunion is cut short when, in Paradise, a young woman is found murdered.
