Tom Selleck's 'Jesse Stone' hits Boston ... sort of

Tom Selleck, known for his '80s series "Magnum P.I." and his stint on NBC's "Friends," will star in the fifth installment of the "Jesse Stone" series following a small-town police chief of Paradise, Mass. (loosely based on Marblehead) who solves big-league crimes.

For his latest outing hitting CBS on Sunday, March 1 at 9 p.m., Selleck heads to Boston (well, it's Halifax, Nova Scotia transformed to look like Boston) which leads directly to his sixth installment called "No Remorse."

In "No Remorse," Selleck investigates a series of murders in ... big shocker here ... Boston.

Here's the lowdown from Variety:

Jesse gets caught in the crossfire when someone tries to murder his police-captain buddy (Stephen McHattie) in Boston -- prompting him to investigate whodunit, while introducing him to an attractive internal-affairs investigator named Sidney Greenstreet (Leslie Hope), doubtless somebody's inside joke.

Based on the popular book series by Robert B. Parker, crews transformed Halifax, Nova Scotia to look like the oh-so-mean streets of Boston in both "Thin Ice" and "No Remorse."
