Notes:Spenser is hired as a bodyguard for Rachel Wallace, a radical feminist who hates men. She wrote a book exposing corporations for mistreatment of women, and now somebody is threatening her life. She endures Spenser for awhile, but when he beats up some guys who are trying to get to her, she says he's everything she doesn't like and fires him. Then she gets kidnapped. Spenser investigates and finds out she's been taken by a rich woman and his son who are angry with Rachel for having an affair with their daughter/sister. Spenser charges into the house, kills the son, punches the old woman, and saves Rachel.
My Rating: 4

Review - 06 Looking for Rachel Wallace

I like the character of Spenser, but this book was just annoying because it tried to make a sympathetic figure out of a woman who despised everything Spenser stood for.
