Paper Doll by Robert B. Parker
3.0
A decent mystery. Lots of Spenserian antics and wise-talk and outsmarting people. It’s always fun when Spenser stumbles into something bigger than he thinks, although it’s a little hard in this case it’s hard to see why:
they let the killer go without any kind of hesitation. An old man kills his employer’s bastard daughter because she brought shame to him? What if he has more bastards? It’s suggested he banged every woman in Dixie and several farm animals? What if the bank comes to evict him from his house? It seems like the makings of a serial killer to me. At the very least, I’d expect Spenser to agonize, discuss it with Susan or one of his little allies.
