Kurzbeschreibung:

Twenty-five years and 26 books into the Spenser series, Hush Money dishes up another solid instalment that is sure to fulfil the cravings of Parker fans new and old. This time Spenser and his buddy Hawk are helping a couple of troubled friends (i.e., theyre working without a fee). The first case involves the denial of tenure for Professor Robinson Nevins. While tenure meetings are always closed-door affairs, Nevins assumes that the recent suicide of graduate student Prentice Lamont (who some claim was having an affair with Nevins) ruined his chances for a coveted permanent position. Spenser and Hawk cut a brawl-strewn path through the members of the tenure committee on their way to the surprising truth of the Nevins case. The other investigation pits Spenser against the unknown stalker of K.C. Roth. Spensers girlfriend, Susan, has known K.C. for a while, and while the PI finds Ms. Roth a bit melodramatic, hes always eager to help a damsel in distress. The only problem is that after hes apparently resolved the case, K.C. begins a little stalking of her own - of Spenser.
