ReviewsPraise for Walking Shadow "Will captivate both longtime and soon-to-be devoted Spenser lovers."-- Kirkus Reviews "The opening premise is particularly delicious...neat jolts of action, crisp, witty dialogue, the signature understated, deadpan zingers that Spenser and Hawk toss off so effortlessly and a lean, mean narrative that rockets the book along. If you're already a Spenser fan, you'll like this one. If you've never read Robert B. Parker, welcome aboard. After Walking Shadow , you'll have a lot of books to catch up on."-- The New York Times "Brisk...the expected pleasures of an adroit Spenser adventure are here in full supply."-- Publishers Weekly "Entertaining, as always."-- Boston Globe "A really good story."-- Chicago Tribune "A deft storyteller, a master of pace, with a plot that pulls us along like taillights vanishing down a dark highway...The wisecracking, deadpan dialogue is as snappy as ever...sheer escapist entertainment."-- Philadelphia Inquirer

SynopsisA murder draws Boston PI Spenser into the dramatic world of theater in this New York Times bestseller in Robert B. Parker's long-running series. In a shabby waterfront town, an actor is shot dead onstage. Granted, the script left much to be desired. But there's more behind the scenes than an overzealous critic--and Spenser and Hawk are combing Port City's underworld to find it... "Great fun... Spenser] is still the cockiest and wittiest P.I. on the block."-- The New York Times, A murder draws Boston PI Spenser into the dramatic world of theater in this New York Times bestseller in Robert B.
