What I believe was the last Spenser novel written in full by Bob himself - a great book. It did seem like Bob had plans for Z to reappear in future Spenser novels so without spoilers I will say it ended in a way that left open possibilities.

Spenser does it again - this time keeping an innocent (assuming we're in agreement that being an a-hole womanizer isn't really a crime) man from being wrongfully imprisoned while taking a wayward substance-abuser under his wing and fixing him up.

Susan's presence is constant in this novel and with that comes the psych banter. Spenser is witty as ever and still in top shape. A solid novel from the great, late RBP.
