| Twenty years ago Boston police detective Phil Randall was head of the task force that was committed to apprehending the Spare Change Killer, who killed without regard to stereotype but always left three coins by the victim’s body. He kept on writing to Phil, trying to engage him in a dialog until abruptly the killing stopped. Now, two decades later, somebody with the same MO is killing again.
Phil is hired by the Boston police force as a consultant; and he brings along his daughter Sunny, a private detective who had been as good a cop as he ever was. During the third homicide, the police seal off the scene; and people within the perimeter are held for questioning. At police headquarters, one of the suspects seems to be getting off on being questioned. Sunny goes in, and within minutes she tells the investigators they have the killer. Most of the officers believe her, but they have no evidence or cause to search his premises. Sunny is determined to take him down and has ways of doing it that the police are unable to use, because they are illegal. Robert B. Parker has written another exciting police procedural with well defined, well liked characters who are full of snappy dialogue, especially when events are at their most serious. Sunny works the case as a way of avoiding personal issues, such as her inability to live with or marry a man, even one she loves who has just separated from his wife for her. Sunny is a more complex character than Spencer and just as likeable. | |||
