Why did Jason Green commit suicide. . . or did he? Terry wants to know, because Jason was once kind to Terry. When he starts asking questions, things start happening --- and not good things.

Good mystery with all-rounded teen characters.

Really good for the list.

Almost a young Spenser novel. The art of boxing is explained so well that it made me want to get in the ring (almost).

A fast easy read, written for young adults. I read it because I wanted to read all of Parker's books.
LibraryThing member bookczuk
Mostly Parker-esque dialog, which, in my opinion, is a good thing. And blue butterflies. Damn, I'm sorry this man is dead.

Robert Parker did write well for young adults. I had a hard time putting this one down. Okay, I didn't put it down. Read cover to cover this morning.
