Thanks for the Tom Selleck ping. Long live Jesse Stone!!!
Whatever you do, don’t read “Night Passage,” the one where Stone leaves LA for Paradise. Just stick with the TV series. The late Robert Parker, the author of the books, comes across to me as the typical stone-cold LIBERAL who buys into all the MSM stereotypes of bigoted, mouth-breathing, cold-hearted “conservatives.” If Tom Selleck is responsible for the huge improvements over the books in the TV series, then I respect his talent even more than ever.
