The problem with the Jesse Stone series in general is that they try to incorporate the various shows in relationship to his personal life. In other words, we get side tracked here and that's not very good.
This episode was another perfect example here. More should have been stated about the grieving father-in-law. Was the son-in-law an innocent victim when Butler's car was fire-bombed? Who was Arthur? Was he just a hit-man?
Saul Rubinek's character of Hasty was hastily put together. All of a sudden, he was a big deal in this.
Rose (Kathy Bates) briefly appears. She always seems so depressed here. One wonders if she is just under contract to fulfill her role as Rose.
The show was slow-moving and basically uneventful considering that a car bombing killing two police officers should have generated much more interest.
score 6/10
