Robert B. Parker's Cheap Shot (A Spenser Novel) - Tapa blanda

Praise for ROBERT B. PARKER'S LULLABY
"Handpicked by the Parker estate to be the keeper of the flame for the Spenser franchise, award-winning author Ace Atkins rises flawlessly to the occasion. In addition to the signature dialogue, all the familiars are fully resurrected: Susan, the sexy shrink; Pearl, the wonder dog; Hawk, the wonder sidekick; good cop Quirk, and, of course, Spenser himself, that consummate knight errant for the 21st century."--"Kirkus Reviews"
"Even the most fanatical Parker fans would be hard pressed to identify any aspect of this Spenser novel that doesn't read as if it were penned by Spenser's late creator....Atkins hits all the familiar marks - bantering scenes with Spenser's girlfriend, fisticuffs, heavy-duty backup from the dangerous Hawk - as he offers familiar pleasures."--"Publishers Weekly"
"A brisk read. Atkins gets the important things right, from Spenser's dark sarcasm to the gritty attitude of Mattie Sullivan, a 14-year-old Southie girl trying to solve her mother's murder."--Boston" Magazine"
"Atkins succeeds. He doesn't sound like somebody trying to emulate Parker.... Spenser, thankfully, sounds like Spenser. You also get the vivid sense of place, flexing of muscles and spare plot that were hallmarks of Parker's 39 Spenser books....It's a feat when a writer creates characters who live and breathe on the page and make readers care and keep coming back for m
