The second installment in Parker’s Spenser series, takes place in the 70s. Dated in some ways, intriguing in others. A bit sexist but comparatively speaking, for the time, not too bad really. More dated is the morality of the time, but true, I think, as I remember the days.
Spenser is hired to find a missing 15 year old boy. At first it seems like he’s run off, but a few days later, a ransom note arrives. And then things get more bizarre from there.
Interesting twists and turns, and Spenser’s smart arse commentary and retorts amuse.
