About this product

Product Information

P.I. Spenser, knight-errant of the Back Bay, returns in this stellar addition to the iconic New York Times bestselling series from author Ace Atkins. What started out as a joke landed seventeen-year-old Dillon Yates in a lockdown juvenile facility in Boston Harbor. When he set up a prank Twitter account for his vice principal, he never dreamed he could be brought up on criminal charges, but that's exactly what happened.   This is Blackburn, Massachusetts, where zero tolerance for minors is a way of life.   Leading the movement is tough-as-nails Judge Joe Scali, who gives speeches about getting tough on today's wild youth. But Dillon's mother, who knows other Blackburn kids who are doing hard time for minor infractions, isn't buying Scali's line. She hires Spenser to find the truth behind the draconian sentencing.   From the Harbor Islands to a gated Florida community, Spenser and trusted ally Hawk follow a trail through the Boston underworld with links to a shadowy corporation that runs New England's private prisons. They eventually uncover a culture of corruption and cover-ups in the old mill town, where hundreds of kids are sent off to for-profit juvie jails.

"It's great to see Spenser tackle a social evil with its roots in real life."-- Kirkus Praise for Ace Atkins  "Spenser is as tough and funny as ever, and Atkins has become a worthy successor."--Booklist"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."--Publishers Weekly, "In short, Kickback is classic Spenser - the Spenser of wry wit, tasty food and drinks, hard workouts and lethal confrontations. It's a reader's guide to greater Boston and a nostalgic trip into the noir world of guys who privately investigate all manner of wrongdoing...Once again, Atkins has delivered a thriller that evokes the best of Parker's Spenser series, not least the punchy back-and-forth of the dialogue."--Associated Press   " Kickback  is the best one yet, with Spenser in fine wisecracking fettle...fans of the series will be gratified that both Hawk and Susan Silverman, Spenser's brilliant and beloved squeeze, get plenty of presence, along with Pearl the Wonder Dog. There are just enough bursts of violent action as Spenser untangles the whole sordid mess and at least some justice is done. Good to have you in town, Spenser."-- Tampa Bay Times "Atkins does a wonderful job with the characters created by Parker. To loyalists it may be heresy, but a case can be made for the Atkins novels being better than some of the last Spenser mysteries penned by Parker. A top-notch thriller."-- Booklist (starred) "It's great to see Spenser tackle a social evil with its roots in real life."-- Kirkus "A topical plot line propels bestseller Atkins's engrossing fourth Spenser novel...Once again, Atkins has done a splendid job of capturing the voice of the late Robert B. Parker."-- Publishers Weekly, Praise for Ace Atkins "Spenser is as tough and funny as ever, and Atkins has become a worthy successor."-Booklist"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."-Publishers Weekly, "It's great to see Spenser tackle a social evil with its roots in real life."-- Kirkus "A topical plot line propels bestseller Atkins's engrossing fourth Spenser novel...Once again, Atkins has done a splendid job of capturing the voice of the late Robert B.
