Title: Not a very good effort
Product review: I am a huge RBP fan and have read all his books in all the various series he has written. Spenser fans will read this one too but it is one of, if not the worst of the lot. The dialouge is formulaic; the plot (and many action elements) contrived. There are events in the early part of the book that are actually fully contradicted by later events (follow the trail of Tony Marcus's early visit to Spenser).There are numerous logic and plot mistakes. Many events seem illogical, particularly in the connections between April Kyle and Patricia Utley. Read it if you must but don't let this be your first entry into the Spenser series. There are great books in the series; this one is at the bottom.
