Spenser investigates a case that hits dangerously close to home in this latest installment of Robert B. Parker’s beloved series.
Spenser is waiting out the latest Boston snowstorm when he gets word that Rita Fiore has been shot. Rita’s always been a tricky one: flirting with Spenser for years, she’s an ever-present figure that transcends friendship in Spenser’s circle. But at the end of the day, Rita is family. And family will always be protected.
Both a pit bull in the courtroom and provocateur outside it, Rita is no stranger to controversy. But as one of the city’s toughest lawyers, Spenser knows that there’s no short list of suspects who might want to enact revenge. With Rita’s life hanging in the balance, it’s up to him to get to the bottom of things, even if it means unearthing some unsavory secrets that might just lead him into an age-old game of lies and deceit.
"[W]hen Mike Lupica took over Robert B. Parker’s Spenser series, it was a seamless transition. It’s as if he channels Parker from beyond the grave: setting, prose, dialogue—the works . . . Hot Property is a must for longtime Spenser fans and a terrific entry point for newcomers as well." —BookPage
"Spenser’s back with a vengeance in Robert B. Parker’s Hot Property, a thrilling story filled with suspense, violence, corruption and witty one-liners. Mike Lupica delivers a new Spenser tale with a classic feel containing heart, virtue and an abundance of Hawk. Everything a long-time fan of this series could ever want." —Best Thriller Books
