Starred review from August 19, 2002
As if responding to his new status as an MWA Grand Master, Parker turns in his strongest mystery in years with Boston PI Sunny Randall's third outing (after Family Honor
and Perish Twice), a particular relief after this spring's flaccid Spenser offering, Widow's Walk. The setup lacks originality—Sunny is hired to bodyguard a bestselling author, Melanie Joan Hall, who pens "high-end bodice rippers," just as years ago in Stardust, Spenser was hired to bodyguard a famous TV newscaster—but by focusing on an author's plight during her book tour, Parker writes about experiences close to his own, delivering sharp portraits of publishing types and fans. Melanie Joan's former husband, John Melvin, a psychopathic psychiatrist, is stalking her. To learn about and discredit him, Sunny consults another psychiatrist, then enters incognito into therapy with Melvin, which adds tremendous resonance to the narrative as, inadvertently, she must confront her own neuroses during sessions, complexes involving her relationships with her parents and estranged husband. Soon Sunny sniffs out that Melvin has been raping and, occasionally, killing members of his all-female clientele by injecting them with a date rape drug. To nab Melvin, she submits to his using the drug on her, in an intense finale. With layers of psychological revelation, plenty of action, the welcome return of Sunny's supporting crew (most notably Spike, a gay counterpart to Spenser's Hawk) and, as usual, prose as tight as a drumhead, this is grade-A Parker. National author tour.

- content: Parker's spunky Boston private eye, Sunny Randall, is hired by a popular romance novelist whose former husband, a prominent psychiatrist, is stalking her. Sunny soon learns that the psychiatrist's depravity does not end with his creepy appearances at his former wife's book signings. She also concludes that she might benefit from a psychiatrist herself as she copes with a remote, former cop father; a mother who escapes into a bottle; and an ex-husband who remains the love of her life. Deborah Raffin's strength isn't in creating a cast of diverse characters, but she does render a Sunny who is smart and immensely appealing. It's a kick to spend time with both of them. M.O.
