Resumen del Editor

In the latest thriller featuring the legendary Boston PI, Spenser and his young protégé Mattie Sullivan take on billionaire money manager running a network of underaged girls for his rich and powerful clients.

Ten years ago, Spenser helped a teenage girl named Mattie Sullivan find her mother's killer and take down an infamous Southie crime boss. Now Mattie - a college student with a side job working for the tough but tender private eye - dreams of being an investigator herself. Her first big case involves a 15-year-old girl assaulted by a much older man at one of Boston's most prestigious private clubs. The girl, Chloe Turner, only wants the safe return of her laptop and backpack. But like her mentor and boss, Mattie has a knack for asking the right questions of the wrong people.

Soon Spenser and Mattie find ties between the exploitation of dozens of other girls from working class families to an eccentric billionaire and his sadistic henchwoman with a mansion on Commonwealth Avenue. The mystery man's wealth, power and connections extend well beyond Massachusetts - maybe even beyond the United States. Spenser and trusted ally Hawk must again watch out for Mattie as she unravels a massive sex-trafficking ring that will take them from Boston to Boca Raton to the Bahamas, crossing paths with local toughs, a highly-trained security company, and an old enemy of Spenser's - the Gray Man - for a final epic showdown.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"In this latest in his continuation of Robert B. Parker's beloved Spenser series, Atkins continues to do the late author proud....The talented Atkins delivers another engrossing thriller." (Booklist)

“Addictive... Atkins expertly revives the verve and muscular prose of the early books.” (Seattle Times)

Great read!

In the tradition of this classic series; Spenser wears well over time! loved it

Hawk.Spencer . Maddy...Loved It

Joe Montania is my favorite narrator and Hawk is a favorite caracter. The child induction plot is not something i want to read about but it was still a good book.

Fun

Very predictable. But every time aI get to spend time with Spenser and Hawk is worth the price of admission.

Always a good story.

Mantenga brings one of my favorite detectives to life with his mock film noir phrasing. There aren’t too many twists in this. We know the bad guy early on. The end is a bit of a shocker. But the seriousness of this crime makes the search more intense. Good for the author to drive it home. Great read.

Watch over me

Always a good story and performance!
Fun listen will get another in order. Have to keep up.

True to Parker’s legacy

Tight story, well told. Well paced with plenty of action. And I need five more words

always spenser

taken from the headlines Spenser and Hawk do what they do. All good! Do they ever get old?

I LOVE MADDIE SULLIVAN.

best Spenser since Ace took over the character. I absolutely love Maddie Sullivan. I so glad they brought her back. Even though it's quite reminiscent of the Jeffrey Epstein story.

Spenser takes on Jeffrey Epstein

This was my first Spenser written by an author other than Robert B Parker and it works. Ace Atkins captured the familiar characters well.

Best Ever

Couldn't stop listening. Enjoyed all the word play. Can't wait for the next book.
