Taming a Sea-horse

Description

Boston private investigator Spenser sets out to find April Kyle, a young woman he once helped escape a dangerous life, only to discover that her disappearance is tied to a shadowy world of exploitation and criminal influence. As he follows the trail, Spenser confronts people determined to keep April hidden—and willing to use violence to protect their secrets. With assistance from Hawk and the counsel of Susan Silverman, he balances hard-boiled determination with compassion in a case that tests his sense of responsibility. Combining brisk action, sharp dialogue, and Parker’s trademark wit, the novel explores loyalty, survival, and the difficult line between rescuing someone and allowing them to choose their own fate.
