Colorblind Book Review

I reserved the next book in the series when I saw there were new books out and I got to read this right after the last one because I was playing catch up.  Robert B. Parker's Colorblind (A Jesse Stone Novel) by Reed Farrel Coleman was the next installment of the Jesse Stone series.  I was excited to see what was going to happen next.  I went through it a little too fast and now I have to be patient for the next one!!

Police chief Jesse Stone returns in the newest novel in Robert B. Parker's New York Times--bestselling series, and his newest case hits right at the heart of the Paradise police force.

Jesse Stone is back on the job after a stint in rehab, and the road to recovery is immediately made bumpy by a series of disturbing and apparently racially motivated crimes, beginning with the murder of an African American woman. Then, Jesse's own deputy Alisha--the first black woman hired by the Paradise police force--becomes the target of a sophisticated frame-up. As he and his team work tirelessly to unravel the truth, he has to wonder if this is just one part of an even grander plot, one with an end game more destructive than any of them can imagine.

At the same time, a mysterious young man named Cole Slayton rolls into town with a chip on his shoulder and a problem with authority--namely, Jesse. Yet, something about the angry twenty-something appeals to Jesse, and he takes Cole under his wing. But there's more to him than meets the eye, and his secrets might change Jesse's life forever.

This book is about Jesse Stone starting back to the job after rehab and how hard it was for him to do the job without resorting to alcohol.  It was interesting  to see how he changed based on the changes he made in his life.  I love Jesse Stone and I was pulling for his sobriety to work and him to be able to pull his life together.  It is hard to agree with his drinking but I was afraid that he wasn't going to be able to do his job sober.  I hope that you pick up the book and find out what happened with this funny small town cop.  I hope that you check out this book and more in the Jesse Stone series.  They are all really good and I look forward to reading the next one if I can be patient and wait that long!!

This was the last book that I think I read in 2018 so hoping to add up everything and see how the year went!!
