Sea Change
"When a woman's partially decomposed body washes ashore in Paradise, police chief Jesse Stone is forced into a case far more difficult than it initially appears. Identifying the woman is just the first step in what proves to be a treacherous and emotionally charged investigation. Florence Horvath was an attractive, recently divorced heiress from Florida; she also had a penchant for steamy sex and was an enthusiastic participant in a video depicting the same. Somehow the combination of her past and her present got her killed, but no one is talking – not the crew of the Lady Jane, the Fort Lauderdale yacht moored in Paradise Harbor; not Florence's very blond, very tan twin sisters, Corliss and Claudia; and not her curiously affectless parents, living out a sterile retirement in a Miami high rise. But someone – Jesse – has to speak for the dead, even if it puts him in harm's way."–BOOK JACKET.
