Seller Description
Spenser (PI) for Hire Novels Lot of 16 Robert B Parker Hardback Books and Jesse Stone Lot of 2 Novels Spenser "with an 'S', like the poet" is a Bostonian ex-cop-turned-private detective, gourmet cook, bookworm and former boxer, who straddles the line between legal and illegal to solve crimes. He was created by the American mystery writer Robert B. Parker. He acts as the protagonist of a series of detective novels written by Parker. He is also featured in the 1980s television series Spenser: For Hire and a related series of TV movies based on the novels. In March 2020 he was featured in the Netflix thriller film Spenser Confidential. This lot includes 14 of Parker's earlier novels that feature Spenser, his SO Susan Silverman and friend Hawk. Readers of Lawrence Block, Stuart Woods, Richard North Patterson, and Michael Brandman should enjoy these books. They are great lunch-break reading, by-the-fireplace reading, before-bed reading, and in-the-waiting room reading. This lot also includes 2 Jesse Stone Books. Stone is a former LAPD homicide detective who resigned due to a drinking problem. He is hired as chief of police in the small town of Paradise, Massachusetts. These books would be a great addition to the home libraries of fans of Michael Connelly, Ed McBain, John Sandford, Lee Child, and Sue Grafton.
