The Jessie Stone follow-up Race Week comes out in September.

Does any "Spenser" novel discuss how Hawk and Spenser met?

I read all Mr.Parker's novels. Now I am waiting for his latest "Cold Service".... He inspired me so, I wrote my own mystery novel..."The Nick Edwards Novel". It is pending at this point. These will be based on my own cases when I was a P.I.

My question...Do I need Mr. Parker's permission to use his name in my 'ACKNOWLEDGEMENT'? Please contact me. Thank-you very much. I salute you Mr. Robert B. Parker.

In Double Play, Mr. Parker lists several 1947 box scores. I haven't been able to find anyone who can tell me what the column headings 'O' and 'A' are for. Any help available here? Thanks.

Can anyone tell me what book Pearl The Wonder Dog dies in and how she dies. All of a sudden, they got a replacement dog, and I do not remeber Pearl dying, or how she died. --Pat

Pearl The Wonder Dog was mentioned in the book "BACK-STORY". Paul and Quirk stated their sympathy's. Spenser accepted them, but didn't care to elaborate.

But if I remember, some stories back, I believe it was mentioned one time or another, Pearl had arthritis and the Parker family had to put Pearl down, for the lack of another word. But don't quote me on that.

I once got on to Robert B. Parkers site where you could contact him and find out all about him. His home page was very nice, but now I can't seem to get to it anymore. Any suggestions?
