Valediction <\/em>, Audio Book<\/a> (1984) Robert B. Parker<\/a> narrated by Michael Prichard (Spenser)<\/p>\n

\"Valediction\"<\/a>Spenser continues to unravel as Susan moves to California to work.<\/p>\n

And starts seeing someone else.<\/p>\n

Paul is staying with Spenser for summer break, and suggests Spenser take a case for the director of the dance company Paul is working for. A dancer has been kidnapped and the director wants his lover back.<\/p>\n

But she’s in a cult and her lover claims she’s being held there by force, so Spenser makes a nuisance of himself to find out if she is where she wants to be.<\/p>\n

This is a story where Spenser sees what he wants to, and that gets him into trouble.<\/p>\n

What gets him into bigger trouble is that with Susan gone, and his continued guilt over the death of Candy Sloan, Spenser doesn’t much care if he lives or dies.<\/p>\n
