- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is one of the most enjoyable of the Spenser stories and this re-read did nothing to change my opinion. This was as much fun as the first time I read this.
4 stars for a really fun read. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is my favorite Spenser novel in recent years. I feel that Parker has gotten to the point where he is mailing it in without even giving the plots much thought. This book was a pleasant surprise. It was well written, well characterized, and a fun read. Spenser is in old school hard ass, wise ass form and I did not miss Hawk, who did not appear in this one. I've never said Parker had substance, but he does have style.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I wasn't excited about the ending, but everything else was - as usual - highly entertaining.
Joe Mantegna is the audiobook voice; I have a problem now seeing him on television because I identify his voice as Spenser (physical description notwithstanding). He has a wonderfully dry tone and truly sounds like he's enjoying himself. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another wonderful tale by Parker. Someone's shooting horses ... or is that just a diversion? Great dialogue, great characters. Irreverent, but take it or leave it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Parker does it again and again. He manages to entertain and write a good terse story (something I wish other writers could learn from him). I would recommend reading the Spenser novels in order, since many characters from previous books show up along the line. Plus, you get a real feel for Spenser and his relationship to not only Susan but with the world. Noticeably absent from this book was Hawk, but I"m sure we'll be seeing him again soon.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I'm a late convert to this author. I only started reading him in the last year and I'm working my way through the Spenser novels whenever I go to the library. They don't however have many of them and Mr Parker is nothing if not a prolific writer so I haven't managed to find many of the older ones yet but I will. In the meantime there are plenty of newer ones. Takes me a few pages to get into the story normally but then I'm hooked and can't stop reading. I love the sense of humour in the books and want desperatly to meet all the characters in real life.Long live Spenser.
