Product Information

When fourteen-year-old Mattie Sullivan asks Spenser to look into her mother's murder, he's not completely convinced by her claim that the police investigation four years ago was botched. Mattie is gruff, street-smart, and wise beyond her years, left to care for her younger siblings and an alcoholic grandmother in a dilapidated apartment in South Boston.  But her need for closure and her determination to make things right hit Spenser where he lives- they're the very characteristics he abides by.  Mattie believes the man convicted of the crime is innocent and points Spenser to the Southie toughs who she saw carrying her mother away hours before her murder. Neither the Boston PD nor the neighborhood thugs are keen on his dredging up the past, but as Spenser becomes more involved in the case, he starts to realize that Mattie may be onto something. Spenser will need Hawk's help to find peace for Mattie - a job that's more dangerous than he ever thought.

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...as he offers familiar pleasures." - Publishers Weekly, "Atkins succeeds. He doesn't sound like somebody trying to emulate Parker. He sounds like Parker in a book that hits all the usual Spenser notes. He has the wisecrack-filled dialogue down and Parker's cadences, too: 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 more. To manage that with someone else's characters, let alone with an icon like Spenser, is a minor miracle. Ace Atkins pulls it off." -- Chicago Sun-Times,  "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." -- Kirkus Reviews, "In Lullaby, Ace Atkins has brought back everything we love about Robert B. Parker's Boston P.I. Spenser, and he makes it look seamless and easy…. Atkins takes the reins of the Spenser series with self-assured ease. He also proves he's the right man for the job." -MysteryPeople.com ,  "Atkins succeeds. He doesn't sound like somebody trying to emulate Parker.

Ace Atkins pulls it off." -- Chicago Sun-Times, "Ace Atkins has proven an exceptionally talented writer.... Taking on the challenge of continuing the much-loved Spenser series is a daunting task. Ace Atkins responds with a knock-out punch in round one. Parker would most definitely approve. - Shelf Awareness "It's all there: The crisp, rhythmic sentences. The ironic banter. The distinctly Spenserian attitude toward life that Atkins adopted as his own. And yet, those who have read both Parker and Atkins closely may also detect a muted, indefinable quality that's pure Atkins. And that's a very good thing…. Parker lives. Spenser is back." -Bruce DeSilva, Edgar Award Winning author of Cliff Walk "It's the real deal. Atkins captures Parker's distinctive voice, the sardonic, self-deprecating, sharply observant first-person narration that makes the Spenser books so compelling, and so much fun." - Tampa Bay Times "In Lullaby, Ace Atkins has brought back everything we love about Robert B.

  • Spenser lives!!

    Filling a void left by the untimely death of Mr.Parker,we have been spared the loss of our favorite Boston private eye by Mr. Atkins appearance at the plate. While this reader noted some subtle nuances that made me feel as though there was ,indeed,someone new in the saddle, it was still a noble first effort that has managed to keep me eagerly awaiting the next Spenser adventure. The only suggestion i would have for the author is something i never got to request from Mr. Parker and that would be for a prequel book at some point to fill the time period between Chasing the Bear and the Godwulf Manuscript....ie covering Spenser's military stint and his police service that lead up to him leaving the force and becoming a ...
