Well, I'm looking forward to POTSHOT, and am confident that
I'll enjoy it. But, once I do so, I'll add it to the pile of
previous Spenser's, for eventual sale/trade, before I
move.
However I'll keep the two Jesse Stone novels -- which I find
considerably more, err, substantial, than the Spenser canon
-- and faunch for more to come....
[I have, but have not yet read, FAMILY HONOR, which (I
believe) was more-or-less written on assignment for a series
of proposed tv movies. Does anyone have an opinion on it --
undoubtedly somewhere in the Archives it's been mention -- or
the status ... if any ... of the tv tie-in?]
