- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/51982. My first Spenser mystery and I wasn't impressed. It has some great old Boston Combat Zone scenes, but the writing is strictly hack stuff. Adequate. The fighting that Spenser and his black army buddy, Hawk, do in this book is simply not credible. And it went on so long it was as boring as those ridiculously long fight scenes in some movies. Seriously, I put the book down in the middle of a fight and didn't pick it up til the next day. His perfect-seeming relationship was also suspect in my eyes. They've been together how long and they're still having great sex? On the regular? I don't know. It wasn't plausible and it wasn't very entertaining. Not planning to get another one real soon. Read Russell H. greenan instead.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This early Parker novel finds Spencer trying to rescue a young girl from prostitution. In the end he contacts a madam friend of his and refers this girl to her. She continues to be a prostitute, but only in a better setting. This was not one of the better Spencer novels.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Same premise as SINS OF OUR FATHERS--return high school girl/whore, but wiseass, epicure Spenser is miles better than guilt-ridden Scudder.
