The Widening Gyre by Robert B. Parker

4.0

Spencer is hired to find a video of a politicians wife and stop the blackmail.  To do this he must bump heads with a top crime figure in Boston named Joe Broz. 

This is a solid entry into the series. Spenser is dealing with his own loneliness and age, and his love is out of town growing away from him. The writing is efficient and the tone darker than the earlier books.
