Paper Doll

Written by Robert B. Parker

Narrated by David Dukes

Hired by an aggrieved Boston aristocrat who believes his wife's brutal slaying to be something other than random violence, Spenser immediately senses that his client's picture-perfect portrayal of his family life is false. For starters, the victim's reputation is too saintly, her house is as lived-in as stage set, and her troubled children don't appear to be products of a happy home. Spenser plungers into a world of grand illusion, peopled with cardboard cutouts, including a distinguished public servant with plenty to hide, a wealthy executive whose checks bounce, a sleepy Southern town seething with scandal, and a victim who may or may not be really dead.
