Title 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)

Another quality Spenser novel. Michael Prichard is outstanding in his voice characterizations. You can not ask for a better combination of a good book and a quality reader.

Robert Parker's Spenser kept the cynicism and suspense in great balance. The reader, Michael Prichard, found the right tone in this fast-moving, wise-cracking novel. I found myself drawn into the various plotlines and wacky characters that all blended into an enjoyable escape.
