Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Robert B. Parker's Spenser series has long defined detective fiction, but Jesse Stone's debut in Night Passage introduced a compelling new character. Critics hailed it as "fresh and bold," praising Parker's signature wit and the complexity of Stone. Stiles Island, an exclusive enclave, becomes the target of James Macklin, who sees it as the ultimate investment. His plan involves invading the island, destroying the bridge, and looting its riches. Macklin, with his girlfriend Faye, recruits a crew of skilled ex-cons, including the dangerous Wilson Cromartie, known as Crow. As Macklin plots his crime, Paradise Police Chief Jesse Stone grapples with personal challenges. He faces romantic complications: his ex-wife Jenn is in jail for assault, he’s starting a new relationship with realtor Marcy Campbell, and he’s still conflicted about attorney Abby Taylor. When Macklin's scheme unfolds, both Marcy and Abby find themselves in danger. As the situation escalates and casualties rise, Jesse must act swiftly to protect the women he cares about. This gripping tale is rich with "light, shade, texture, and complexity," showcasing Parker's mastery of the genre.
