This is a movie that can be watched by those new to Jesse Stone.

The mystery has just enough twists, and the conclusion is exciting. A third person dies, and while it looks like suicide, Stone doesn't believe it. Stone also goes out with the pretty but tough Amanda, Gino Fish's secretary, but just for information.

Dix, and he is dating Thelma, who works at Hasty's car dealership and sings standards in a club. Stone hasn't talked to his ex-wife Jen since he lost his job, and he's drinking again his dog seems to disapprove. How will this man get anything done? Believe me, he will. Stone has no cell reception at his house. Suitcase is working on his father's boat where he claims to be happy, but he's not convincing. Rose quit and took her kids to her mother's in Toledo. Stone suspects the murders were the result of Butler being corrupt (Wait: why will Butler let Stone take over his job, much less get away with investigating him? There's a very good reason). Since when has that ever stopped Stone? His next two actions are illegal and provide two of the film's best comic moments, the other being Hasty's bow-tie. Healy tells Stone what he needs to know and advises him to leave the investigating to the state cops.

Stone and the state investigator Healy are friends, so maybe he will have better luck. Town council members Hanson and Hasty show up at Stone's remote house-his phone is disconnected-to offer him his job back. The state arson investigators won't tell the town council anything. Or is it? Two people are dead, and be warned-their bodies look like something out of a horror movie. But when they get there, it appears to be a false alarm. Paradise Police Chief 'Skipper' Butler and Officer D'Angelo are investigating a fire at 'The Point'.
