From Amazon.co.uk

The always dependable Tom Selleck returns as Robert B. Parker's small town police chief Jesse Stone in Death in Paradise, the made-for-TV sequel to Stone Cold, his 2005 debut as the character. Stone is a grittier, more human (and vulnerable) role than the one that made Selleck famous (playboy detective Thomas Magnum of Magnum, P.I..), but his tenacity and character flaws (a drinking problem and latent feelings for his ex-wife) seem a comfortable fit for the older Selleck. And the mystery itself--which surrounds the death of a young student whose connections to big-city crime--is crisp and convoluted (if not particularly novel), which provides Selleck with enough action and drama to please his long-time fans. William Devane and Gary Basaraba (Boomtown) are among the guest stars, while Viola Davis, Vito Rezza, and Kohl Sudduth return from Stone Cold as Selleck's police officers. Selleck also contributed to the script and co-produced along with director Robert Harmon, who helmed the other Stone films. --Paul Gaita, Amazon.com

Product Description

Feature-length crime drama sequel starring Tom Selleck as small-town sheriff Jesse Stone, a former LA policeman who has relocated to Paradise, Massachusetts after leaving the force as a result of his drinking problem. In this installment, Stone tackles the mysterious murder of a teenage girl and the case of a battered wife while struggling with his own alcoholism, his ambivalent relationship with his ex-wife and his disastrous love life. His investigation of the teenage girl's murder leads him into the dangerous territory of Boston's underworld and a sex trafficking ring.

4.0 out of 5 stars Selleck continues to shine 4 Sep 2009
By Mr. Stephen Kennedy TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
Tom Selleck returns in the third of the series of TV movies based on Jesse Stone, the dogged and flawed small town police chief, as written by Robert Parker.
This time round, the story revolves around a young teenager's murder, following her badly decomposed body being discovered 3 weeks after her disappearance. As before, the story is told in a nuanced and unflinching style, with atmospheric bleak music and dark cinematography. What makes these movies so satisfying is the sense that they are so believable - whether it is the matter of fact way he deals with the crimes, or the sideline plots of domestic violence, or just Jesse Stone's inherent flaws which make him believably human. He drinks. He still harbours a little flame for his ex-wife. The action when it happens is sparse and final.
Previous entries have been solid 4 stars reaching towards the 5th... this one struggles a little to get that 4th star, having a few too many familiar elements from before - the woman of the episode, to act as a foil to Stone's character issues, the last minute tete a tete with the who of the whodunnit, wrapping things up just a little too succinctly. Having said that, it earns the 4 stars, primarily thanks to Selleck who just gets better and better as he ages.
Recommended, above par TV movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thrid Jesse Stone investigation 2 Mar 2009
Format:DVD
Whilst still struggling with his own problems Sheriff Stone investigates a murder. I personnally am a fan of Tom Selleck's work and enjoyed this and immediately ordered the next installment having watched this one.Very little actual violence shown and language kept within acceptable levels. Story enjoyable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is there something in the water? 19 Mar 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having watched most of the excellent Jesse Stone films which I enjoyed very much, and read a couple of the books, with less enthusiasm, I have now come to the conclusion there must be something in the water in Massachusetts.

There appear to be no muggings, robberies, drug crime, vandalism, kidnapping, burglaries, car stealing, gang wars, or even youths fighting outside the local bar in Paradise. Most of the murder cases Chief Stone takes on are sex related in some way, and nearly all the women proposition him (but as he's played by Tom Selleck I know why) so it's a mystery how he has time to solve crimes so well, between the sex, drinking and taking phone calls from his ex wife. No wonder he talks to a shrink.

Maybe Robert B Parker should see one too, because he certainly has a problem. Doesn't he know that a little sex is titillating, too much is plain monotonous! Even Jesse's dog looks like he's seen it all before.
