Chance by Robert B. Parker

Title:  Chance
Author: Robert B. Parker
Did I listen or read?: library book
When did I finish?: Nov 22, 2012
When was the book published:  1996
Main Characters: Spenser, Hawk, Susan, a bunch of gangsters - Julius Ventura, daughter Shirley, missing husband Anthony Meeker, Fast Eddie Lee, GIno FIsh, Mary Anaheim, wife Bibi
What happens? Spenser gets hired by Ventura to find Meeker when he goes missing.  Hawk refuses the case unless Spenser takes it on.  He knows that he is not being told the truth about what happened, and by the time he finishes, it is hard to tell who he is working for, or who is trying to save.
How long was this? 307 pages
Did I like this? Anytime Hawk, Spenser and Susan are conversing, that makes a good book.  The plot was confusing, but more important, it was really hard to care about anyone that Spenser is trying to save.  As always, read it in about 3 days, couldn't put it down.
Overall grade: B
