Police Chief Jesse Stone is back in the remarkable new installment of the "New York Times"-bestselling series. It's been a long time since Jesse Stone left L.A., and still longer since the tragic injury that ruined his chances for a major league baseball career. When Jesse is invited to a reunion of his old Triple-A team at a hip New York city hotel, he is forced to grapple with his memories and regrets over what might have been. Jesse left more behind him than unresolved feelings about the play that ended his baseball career. The darkly sensuous Kayla, his former girlfriend and current wife of an old teammate is there in New York, too. As is Kayla's friend, Dee, an otherworldly beauty with secret regrets of her own. But Jesse's time at the reunion is cut short when, in Paradise, a young woman is found murdered and her boyfriend, a son of one of the town's most prominent families, is missing and presumed kidnapped. Though seemingly coincidental, there is a connection between the reunion and the crimes back in Paradise. As Jesse, Molly, and Suit hunt for the killer and for the missing son, it becomes clear that one of Jesse's old teammates is intimately involved in the crimes. That there are deadly forces working below the surface and just beyond the edge of their vision. Sometimes, that's where the danger comes from, and where real evil lurks. Not out in the light--but in your blind spot.

In this study of James's "The Ambassadors", the late Dorothea Krook subjects the "drama of consciousness" in James's "favourite all round" of his productions to intense scrutiny from a wide variety of perspectives. Krook's exegesis of theme, character, and style may serve as an engaging introduction for newcomers to "The Ambassadors" and at the same time may offer seasoned students of Henry James an array of challenging new insights. Dorothea Krook - winner in 1973 of Israel's highest civilian honour, the Israel Award, for her book "Elements of Tragedy" (1969) - established herself as an important commentator on Henry James with her study "The Ordeal of Consciousness in Henry James" (1962). When she died unexpectedly in her study at Kibbutz Ein Harod, Dorothea Krook left on her desk the manuscript of "Henry James's "The Ambassadors": A Critical Study". She devotes substantial discussions to all of the principal relationships among the characters in the novel, to its archetypal plot, to James's return in "The Ambassadors" to the international theme, to the mixture of comic and tragic elements in the novel, to James's ambiguity in the novel - notably, the ambiguity about whether or not Chad Newsome has really been transformed - and to James's late style.
