Praise 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
