Jesse Stone: Thin Ice

Jesse Stone: Thin Ice is the fifth film in the Jesse Stone film series aired on the CBS television network starring Tom Selleck. It is based on the character from the successful book series created by the late Robert B. Parker. Unlike the preceding four movies, the film is not based on one of the books. The film begins with the attempted assassination of State Police Captain Healy, while he is on a stakeout. Jesse is also wounded in the attack, but is able to get a couple shots off at the assailant and save Healy’s life. Healy winds up in the hospital and reveals to Jesse that he... wasn’t on a stakeout, but that he was spying on his nephew, whom his mother believes is sleeping with his saxophone instructor. Jesse begins investigating the shooting despite protests from the Paradise town council. The town council members feel that the police department is already spread too thin and are becoming frustrated with Chief Stone. A main concern of theirs, and Internal Affairs, is the six shooting incidents he’s been involved in since his arrival in Paradise.
