The whole gang was here, including Hawk, Vinnie, Martin Quirk , Frank Belson, Rita Fiore, Jesse Stone, Molly and Henry. And of course Susan Silverman and the newest incarnation of Pearl the Wonder Dog. The only missing members of the gang were Zeke and Cholo. Spenser does what he does best, being a general nuisance until the guilty party comes for him. I think what Mike Lupica gets right where Ace Atkins failed in my opinion was just the right amount of Susan Silverman. It felt like Atkins used her to fill too many pages and get the required word count. Joe Mantegna does his usual journeyman job with the narration. The only issue I have is when a series is around as long as this one has the main characters must be at least octogenarians and Quirk and Belson long past retirement if not decades in the cemetery already.

Good story with one very notable flaw.

A good story typical of the Sherlock Holmes pastiche. Basil Rathbone was excellent as Holmes as he always was. Watson was not played by Nigel Bruce.
The one glaring issue with the story was that the Germans were in the mess they were in because they refused to pay 50k to the woman for the papers yet offered that same amount to Holmes. I have listened to hundreds of stories and Adam's great commentary on them and was surprised that he missed that or at least didn't mention it.
