Chasing the Bear by Robert B. Parker

1.0

I'm not really a Spenser fan, so I didn't understand the context of the story. Spenser is telling Susan (his girlfriend? wife?) a story about his youth. He was raised by his father and two uncles, as his mother was dead. They taught him the values he still believes in. At the age of 14, he saved Jeannie from her abusive father, who died chasing them. Then he outfoxes a bully who preys on Mexican kids. He's way too perfect.
