About this listen

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.

A new Travis McGee with a sense of humour.

Like my old friend T McGee, Spensor has a moral code and can take care of himself. It does not matter how big a criminal and how bad the odds he puts on his slightly stained armour and rides in to the rescue. He has a good heart and a smart mouth and when I listen to this series I can almost imagine that I am the one who is suiting up and riding in. Parker does a fantastic job of taking me to another place away from my own life for a time. My life is great but it always nice to try something different and Parker gives it to me at just the right pace.

Got to live Mr. Parker

Robert B Parker is the man when it come to detective novels. Spencer is what every man should strive to be.
