About this listen
In Stone Cold, Police Chief Jesse Stone has a problem - actually, two problems - dead bodies turning up, and no clues. A man takes his dog out for a run on the beach, only to be discovered hour later with two holes in his chest. A woman drives her Volvo to the mall to do some grocery shopping, never makes it back to her house and is found dead.
Investigating a serial killer in an affluent suburban town is difficult, and with the added pressures from the town selectmen and media, the heat is turned up on Jesse. The harder these outside forces push against him, the more Jesse retreats into himself, convinced - despite all the odds - that it's up to him alone to stop the killing.

Story
It is 1947 when Joseph Burke, ex-Marine, ex-husband, ex-somebody–is hired as a bodyguard to protect Lauren Roach, 25 and spoiled rotten. The unlikely duo becomes entangled with Burke’s boyhood hero, color-barrier breaking baseball player Jackie Robinson, in a story that is both thrilling and engaging. It is in the historical character Jackie Robinson that Mr. Parker finds inspiration and Joseph Burke may find his redemption. This is a work of fiction about a real man. Most of what I’ve written I’ve made up. I have, however, attempted to render Jackie Robinson accurately. As he was, or as I imagined him to be, in 1947, when I was turning 15, and he was changing the world. The rest is altogether fiction. It may be more Burke’s story then Jackie’s story. But, without Jackie, Burke would have had no story. And neither would I. Robert B Parker.

Story
Stiles Island is a wealthy and exclusive enclave separated by a bridge from the Massachusetts coast town of Paradise. James Macklin sees Stiles Island as the ultimate investment opportunity: all he needs to do is invade the island, blow the bridge, and loot the island. To realize his investment, 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.

Robert Forster is Jesse Stone
I was very glad I had seen a couple of the TV shows staring "Jesse Stone". It gave immediate faces etc. to many of the characters. The star of the TV show has a voice and inflections extremely close to Robert Forster.
A good story and fun listen.

Good story, but...
...the relationship between Jesse and his ex-wife is becoming exhausting. Jesse is supposedly an intelligent man yet let's this woman control his life. I'm hoping he dumps her in the next book, please!

Great but one concern
one of the best of the series. but
(mild spoiler)
why didn't Stone give his officers a picture of the likely suspects? Seems "uncoply" of him.

Stone Cold is Great!
I really like the Jesse Stone novels and the series that featured Tom Selleck. This book is one of the best in the series. I enjoyed listening to this audio book. It is a nice mix of relationships, character development, intrigue, suspense, and solving cases.

a lot of foul language
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Although the story is very good, i did not enjoy this book because of the language

Liked it will buy another. The reader's script was the only part that needed help.

Picturing the Movies
I've always enjoyed the movies with Tom Selleck in the starring role. Jesse Stone...This sort of followed the book...I pictured the scenes in my head while Rob Forester was reading the lines. I will say he has a unique style when he does read the books but I have heard better. He read the lines and did not vary his voice pattern or inflection between characters. Example, he didn't adjust at all when a woman was to speak...Unlike someone like Ray Porter who does a GREAT woman's voice...or Sarah Mollo-Christenson doing a man's voice...etc...Certainly there are better performers who read novels. But overall I was okay with it...
The story is solid and like I had mentioned I followed along like the movie playing in my head...and I saw the movies first...so it was cool. Obviously, A very different ending and certainly different relationship with Jen...but it was okay...
