This is "classic" Parker, another chapter in the Spenser saga. Here Spencer is on his own. Susan is away at a professional conference. A lot of his conversation (thinking aloud) is confined to Pearl, the dog. The mystery is about a high school boy accused of mass murder at his school. Spencer tries to find out if and why the boy committed the crime.
This book just proves that Parker does not need to depend on his full menu of characters to provide an engrossing story. Spencer alone is still funny, entertaining and a good read!
