NEW CRIME SERIES OFFERS MORE DEPTH THAN SPENSER NOVELS

ROBERT B. PARKER'S ``Night Passage'' launches a new series starring a new detective, Jesse Stone. Stone has a drinking problem, which cost him his job with the LAPD - but it may have helped get him his position as chief of police in Paradise, a small town on Massachusetts' North Shore, where the selectmen don't seem to want an entirely competent cop.
