Boston PI Spenser and right hand Hawk follow a con man’s
trail of smoke and mirrors in this thrilling entry in Robert
B. Parker’s long-running series.
Connie Kelly thought she’d found her perfect man on an
online dating site. She fell so hard for handsome,
mysterious M. Brooks Welles that she wrote him a check for
almost three hundred thousand dollars, hoping for a big
return on her investment. But within weeks, both Welles and
her money are gone. Her therapist, Dr. Susan Silverman,
hands her Spenser’s card...
A self-proclaimed military hotshot, Welles had been a
frequent guest on national news shows speaking with
authority about politics and world events. When he
disappears, he leaves not only a jilted lover but a growing
list of angry investors, duped cops, and a team of
paramilitary contractors looking for revenge.
Enter Spenser, who quickly discovers that Welles’ name,
résumé, and client list are nothing but an elaborate fraud.
As he follows the mystery man’s trail from Boston to
backroads Georgia, Spenser will need help from trusted
allies Hawk and Teddy Sapp to make sure Welles’s next con is
his last.
