About this title: School violence is the incendiary topic that fires up this installment of Robert Parker's ever-popular series about Spenser, the Boston P.I. After two gun-toting kids in ski masks kill seven people and wound eight at an elite private school, one of the shooters, Wendell Grant, gives himself up to police, and fingers Jared Clark as the other perpetrator. Jared's grandmother Lily Ellsworth refuses to believe in Jared's guilt, and hires Spenser to find the evidence proving his innocence, setting Spenser against an entire establishment anxious to close the book on the crime.

"Outstanding; Continuing character: Spenser; Spenser, alone this time, looks into a school massacre and learns there is more behind one of the culprits than anyone else wants to explore"
"This was my first Robert Parker book and I really enjoyed it. It's a modern-day mystery with believable characters, an interesting plot, and it's not predictable."
"Parker keeps Spenser as a solid PI in this small town high school shooting. Reminders of Columbine are apparent, but the story is less about the shooting and more about small town politics. Another good detective novel by Parker."
"I love Parker and Spenser IS Parker...but, he's written so many Spenser books now, sometimes I think he's on auto-pilot with the more recent works. Still, even average Parker/Spenser is terrific, page-turning reading."
