The iconic, tough-but-tender Boston PI Spenser returns in an
outstanding new addition to the New York Times-bestselling series
from author Ace Atkins. What started out as a joke landed
seventeen-year-old Dillon Yates in a lockdown juvenile facility in
Boston Harbor. When he set up a prank twitter account for his vice
principal, he never dreamed he could be brought up on criminal
charges, but that's exactly what happened. This is Blackburn,
Massachusetts, where zero tolerance for minors is a way of life.
Leading the movement is hard-as-nails Judge Joe Scali, who gives
speeches about getting tough on today's wild youth. But Dillon's
mother, who knows other Blackburn kids who are doing hard time for
minor infractions, isn't buying Scali's line. She hires Spenser to
find the truth behind the Draconian sentencing. From the Harbor
Islands to a gated Florida community, Spenser and trusted ally Hawk
follow a trail through the Boston underworld with links to a
shadowy corporation that runs New England's private prisons. They
eventually uncover a culture of corruption and cover-ups in the old
mill town, where hundreds of kids are sent off to for-profit juvie
jails.
