Add a CommentSadly not his best but his last. I would bet the greedy heirs will find some way to keep turning out fakes.
Rather dull with no real intrigue. Not his best for sure. Farfetched in the least. It's what happens when an author is before a blank page. Sometime the result is not very good.
we were so sad to hear about Robert Parker's passing. he gave so much enjoyment to so many people.
