Plot summary
Spenser is hired by a wealthy woman, Marlene Cowley, to gather evidence on
her husband's infidelity. While following the husband, Trent, one evening
and finding him meeting his mistress, Spenser discovers that she too is
being followed by another private detective. Things get even stranger when
Spenser discovers that Marlene Cowley is also being followed by a third P.I.
Eventually, Trent winds up dead as Spenser is waiting to follow him outside
his place of business, Kinergy, where he is CFO. The investigation picks up
steam as Spenser tries to solve the murder. More people end up dead and the
other two P.I.s Spenser ran into disappear. The story involves corporate
corruption and an accounting scandal that only a detective as determined as
Spenser can unravel.
Several Spenser-verse reappearing characters are featured in this book
including Hawk, Vinnie Morris, Susan Silverman and Pearl, their dog. |
