Description

The most dangerous man to cross is one who isn't afraid to die. But the most deadly is one who doesn't want to live. And Spenser has just lost the woman who made life his #1 priority.

So when a religious sect kidnaps a pretty young dancer, no death threat can make Spenser cut and run. Now a hit man's bullet is wearing Spenser's name. But Boston's big boys don't know Spenser's ready and willing to meet death more than halfway.

    Good read, but lacking a satisfying ending.
  • Old story...

    Book was written in the 80s. So, since then, theme has been done multiple times. Boring.... And, dry humor of the protagonist, after a while, is also a big yawn. Too bad.
  • Out of Sequence

    I read this after having finished 16 others previously. It filled a number of gaps in Spenser's life for me. I am glad I read it. But it did not seem as sharp as some, if not all, of Parker's other novels. Still a weak Spenser novel is better than many other.
