Praise for School Days

Crackling prose and juicy repartee. Entertainment Weekly

The best Spenser novel since Early Autumn. The Associated Press

Plenty of entertainment...The two-fisted P.I. is in good form and his creator in fine fettle here. Los Angeles Times

Spenser fans...will be thrilled to have their wise-cracking Boston private eye back again...navigating the perilous shoals of suburban discontent and ripped-from-the-headlines horror stories with only his fanciful German pointer, Pearl, to keep him company. New York Post

Spenser returns! He fights, he flirts, he cooks, he wisecracks, he quotes poetry. This thirty-third outing for the Boston private eye is one of the most psychologically astute and well-choreographed entries in the entire series. This is a high point in one of the genre s classic series. Booklist

A pleasure...another solid installment in this fine, enduring series. Publishers Weekly

Vintage Parker...Everyone interested in mystery and contemporary writing in general should read at least one of the Spenser novels. Library Journal

Parker is at the top of his game...School Days [is] one of the best and most timely books Mr. Parker has ever written. Midwest Book Review
