"Good; Continuing character: Spenser; Susan's ex-husband has money troubles and a harassment lawsuit, so she asks Spenser to help him out; soon bodies start to stack up. Not as good as most in the series."
"Mmm ... Spenser (like the poet) -- and even the title is Spenser (the actual poet). It's good to see Spenser and Hawk back after the last non-Spenser book but this wasn't a very strong entry."
"A really great entry in the Spenser series, Sudden Mischief tells of the unexpected (or some might call it "sudden") reappearance of Susan Silverman's ex-husband, whose name escapes me at the moment. As the former Mr. Silverman (he's changed his name to Sterling) appears to be in some trouble, Susan recruits her man Spenser to investigate.
Although the overall story is nothing new (people get killed, Spenser investigates, crimes get solved), what really makes this book one of the best Spenser novels I've read are the interactions between Spenser and Hawk. Perhaps it's because this is an emotional case for Susan, and her deep soul-searching (deep for a Spenser novel, that is) precludes the usual banter between she and Spenser; perhaps it isn't. But, whatever the reason, I laughed out loud (that's right - a gen-u-wine LOL) several times during Sudden Mischief, all during Spenser/Hawk interactions. A very good book for Hawk fans, and for anyone else who enjoys these characters."
