A hard-boiled Boston private eye - SPENCER - with a chivalric code discovers that college basketball can be a killer sport. With talent comes graft. Spencer battles to salvage the soul of an arrogant young athlete - even if he has to go to hell and back to do it!

Private eye Spenser investigates a case of corruption at Taft University. Thankfully Parker has given up creating characters so stereotyped as to be unbelievable. His strongest point is plotting and this one is wonderful.

The 16th Spenser. The plot for this one is collegiate basketball and gambling. Addresses several social issues in a nice way - thought-provoking without beating you over the head with it.

Gotta love Spenser!
