Sixkill, by the late Robert B. Parker, is the last book in the Spencer series. On location in Boston, bad-boy actor Jumbo Nelson is accused of the rape and murder of a young woman. The Boston PD call on Spenser to investigate. Jumbo was his studio's biggest star, but he's become their biggest liability. In the course of the investigation, Spenser encounters Jumbo's bodyguard: a young Native American named Zebulon Sixkill. Sixkill acts tough, but Spenser sees something more in the young man. The two forge an unlikely alliance, with Spenser serving as mentor for Sixkill. As secrets about both Jumbo and the dead girl come to light, it's Spenser- with Sixkill at his side - who must put things right.

Yuki's career rests on a guilty verdict, so when Lindsay finds evidence that could save the defendant, she is forced to choose. Should she trust her best friend or follow her instinct?
