Description: THe Godwulf manuscript. For Spenser, that most unorthodox of private detectives, no case is ever straightforward and the theft of a 14th-century illuminated manuscript proves no exception. His investigation soon leads him into organized crime, dope-pushing, theft, radical politics, adultery and murder. The first book in the Spenser series.

God save the child. Appie Knoll is the kind of suburb where kids grow up right. But something is wrong. Fourteen-year-old Kevin Bartlett disappears. Everyone thinks he's run away--until the comic strip ransom note arrives. It doesn't take Spenser long to get the picture: an affluent family seething with rage, a desperate boy making strange friends ... friends like Vic Harroway, body builder. Mr. Muscle is Spenser's only lead and he isn't talking except with his fists. But when push comes to shove, when a boy's life is on the line, Spenser can speak that language too. The second book in the Spenser series.

Mortal stakes. Everybody loves a winner, and the Rabbs are major league. Marty is the Red Sox star pitcher, Linda the loving wife. She loves everyone except the blackmailer out to wreck her life. Is Marty throwing fast balls or throwing games? It doesn't take long for Spenser to link Marty's performance with Linda's past ... or to find himself trapped between a crazed racketeer and an enforcer toting an M-16. The third book in the Spenser series.
