Another great Spenser mystery
I've grown weary of the Spenser novels. They all blur together. They don't disappoint, but they don't delight, either.
Loved it! Another great Spencer book that kept me guessing until the last few pages and then it blew me away! More of a surprise than I had anticipated!!! Great, quick read!!!
Spenser at his best. Liked this book
Parker is always a fun read, and this is no different.

Robert Parker always delivers a good story. Plenty of mystery.
Parker's 'Spenser' series novels are 1st rate. This is just another one you must read.
Always have been a fan of Robert B. Parker's work. This book is up to his usual high standards.
Another great Spenser tale from Robert Parker! I always love the wit in these stories...wish I had the comebacks that Spenser has! They're always remaking movies...this is one television series I wish they would bring back.
Two boys wearing ski masks shoot up a school killing seven. Then they barricade themselves in an office. When the SWAT team negotiates a surrender, only one boy is in the office. Two days later he names Jared Clark as his partner. Although Clark confesses his involvement, his grandmother is convinced he is innocent and hires Spenser to prove him so. Spenser immediately runs into real resistance to his pursuing the matter which makes him think there may be something to the grandmother’s beliefs. Another Robert B. Parker masterpiece.
