Title: Good Read for the Serious Fan
Review: Family Honour is a good read for the devoted Spenser fan. It is in fact several Spenser books rolled into one. Fans will recall how Spenser saved Paul by building a cabin in Maine. They will also recall that Spenser saved a run-away in Ceremony. Roll those two up and you have a good part of Family Honour.The plot is predicatable, although the development of a new, if similar character, is welcome. This book really is for the devoted fan.Regardless it is a good read.The fact that the book was writen with Helen Hunt in mind to play the lead in an upcoming movie is encouraging. Most of the Spenser movies and the Spenser television series did not do justice to the characters (with the exception of Avery Brooks as Hawk, who Parker noted was type cast).
