"Am I the only one who's sick of reading about Stone's private life? The sub-plot of his alcoholism and ex-wife problems are excruciating. Mr. Parker would do well to stick with what works: snappy dialogue and cop work. I, for one, would be happier, and would have all that wasted time back that I spent with Jesse Stone in his shrink's office."
"Excellent; Continuing character: Jesse Stone; teen is discovered murdered and abandoned in lake; Stone and company track killer through a prostitution ring using young runaways."
"Very quick read. Parker's dialogue is solid. Jesse Stone is a terrific character, empathetic and sympathetic. Doesn't shelve the death of a teenage runaway."
"This was was not as entertaining to me as the first two Jesse Stone books. I am getting tired of his drinking problem, which really dominated this book - all the bad guys had drinking problems too."
