Plenty of entertainment...The two-fisted P.I. is in good form and his creator in fine fettle here. --Los Angeles Times

Spenser fans...will be thrilled to have their wise-cracking Boston private eye back again...navigating the perilous shoals of suburban discontent and ripped-from-the-headlines horror stories--with only his fanciful German pointer, Pearl, to keep him company. --New York Post
