Superior effort from Parker. Spenser and Hawk clean up a child porn ring right in Boston. Plenty of action and suspense, along with the usual Spenser charm. A great read!

Ceremony (Spenser, Bk 9)
Ceremony - Spenser, Bk 9
Author: Robert B. Parker
Pretty teenager April Kyle is in grown-up-trouble, involved with people who'd beat her up for a dollar and kill her for five. Now she's disappeared, last seen in the Combat Zone, that side of Boston where nothing's proper, especially the sex for sale. â With Hawk, his sidekick, Spenser takes on the whole X-rated industry. From a specialty whorehouse in Providence to stylish Back Bay bordellos, he pits muscle and wit against bullets and brawn until he finds what he's looking for: April Kyle, little girl lost.

"Nowhere is Spenser's vitality clearer than in CEREMONY...Spenser probably had more to do with changing the private eye from coffin-chaser to a full-bodied human being than any other detective hero." (Sun-Times, Chicago)

Go Spencer! Go Hawk! A gently read copy with great drawing of Spencer to front.

One of my first Spenser reads, I was entertained but not captivated by the characters and the plot although I did enjoy the ending....a departure from the usual "happily ever after" resolution of all the hero's adventures. Perhaps, as I become more familiar with the central characters, I will get more involved in the stories.
