Rough Weather by Robert B. Parker

“Spenser, the redoubtable Boston PI, struts his stuff in this 36th entry in the series, but may leave some readers wondering if his ethics will bear even casual examination. . . .Spenser displays his machismo in dealing with a muscle builder and his detective skills in figuring out the Gray Man’s connections to the case.  A troubling conclusion produces one resolution and the promise of further consequences in the next installment.”
