When a simple case turns into a treacherous and politically
charged investigation, Spenser faces his most difficult
challenge yet-keeping his cool while his beloved Susan
Silverman is in danger.
Spenser knows something's amiss the moment Dennis Doherty
walks into his office. The guy's aggressive yet wary, in
the way men frightened for their marriages always are. So
when Doherty asks Spenser to investigate his wife Jordan's
abnormal behavior, Spenser agrees. A job's a job, after
all.
Not surprisingly, Spenser catches Jordan with another man,
tells Dennis what he's found out, and considers the case
closed. But a couple of days later, all hell breaks loose,
and three people are dead. This isn't just a marital affair
gone bad. Spenser is in the middle of hornet's nest of
trouble, and he's got to get out of it without getting
stung. With Hawk watching his back, and gun-for-hire Vinnie
Morris providing extra cover, Spenser delves into a
complicated and far-reaching operation: Jordan's former
lover, Perry Alderson, is the leader of a group that helps
sponsor terrorists. But Perry doesn't like Spenser poking
around his business, so he decides to get to Spenser
through Susan. The Boston P.I. will use all his connections
both above and below the law to uncover the truth behind
Perry's antigovernment organization. But what Alderson
doesn't realize is that Spenser will stop at absolutely
nothing to keep Susan out of harm's way; nothing will keep
him from the woman he loves.
