Robert B. Parker's Killing the Blues

When I ordered this book I feel i had every reason to believe it was written by Robert B. Parker. It was not. The largest type face on the cover is "ROBERT B PARKER" and then the title. At the bottom of the cover it says, in smaller type, all capitalized, "A Jesse Stone Novel" Finally, in a color that more closely matches the blue background it say "By Michael Brandman." I haven't read it yet but I do know that Brandman's name is nowhere to be found on my receipt. Sort of sly, don't you think?
