Book Description:
Spenser is good at finding things. But this time he has a client out on Cape Cod who is in over his head. Harvey Shepard has lost his pretty wife -- and a very pretty quarter million bucks in real estate. Now a loan shark is putting on the bite.

Spenser finds himself doing a slow burn in the Cape Cod sun. The wife has turned up as a hot suspect in a case of murder one ... the in-hock hubby has 24 hours before the mob makes him dead ... and suddenly Spenser is in so deep that the only way out is so risky it makes dying look like a sure thing.

"Spenser is the sassiest, funniest, most-enjoyable-to-read private eye around today." -The Cincinnati Post

One of the very early Spenser books. It was an okay read. Not great but it was a quick read. The later Spenser books are much better.

One of the earlier Spenser novels. I love them all!

The 4th Spenser novel. In this one we meet Hawk who becomes a great "supporting character" in several other books.

Spenser runs head long into a hit man named Hawk. Danger abounds and ends in muder.

One of the earlier Spenser books--not my favorite--but it has its moments.
