A Catskill Eagle (A Spenser Mystery)

In the detective business, Spenser sometimes has to bend the law. Other times, to break it. But he lives by his own inviolate rules.
But when Susan’s desperate letter arrives, Spenser doesn’t think twice. His best friend, Hawk, faces a life sentence. And the woman he loves has gotten herself into even bigger trouble. Now Spenser has to free them both . . . even if it means breaking his own rules to do it.

Praise for Robert B. Parker:

‘One of the great series in the history of the detective story’ New York Times Book Review

‘Reading a Spenser novel is like a family reunion – it makes one feel good’ Library Journal
