Robert B. Parker's private eye, Spenser, is back on the turf he knows best, a Boston of sleaze and surprises, dangerous days and deadly nights.  A serial killer is on the loose in Beantown and the cops can't catch him.  Called the "Red Rose Killer" because he leaves a long-stemmed red rose on each woman he slays, he's paralyzing every female who has to walk the streets after dark.

But once Spenser joins the chase, the murderer's trail turns toward home when a rose is left for Spenser's own Susan Silverman.  It's either a threat or a warning, and Spenser is joined by the steel-fisted Hawk to keep Susan safe.  Now Spenser's playing against time while he tracks the Red Rose Killer from Boston's "combat zone" to the suburbs . . . and finally lays a daring trap for a lady-killer whose calling card is as crimson as his victims' blood.

Crimson Joy is both a fast-paced ride into a city's harsh underworld and a terrifying journey into the black back alleys of a killer's twisted soul and the dark secret regions of a diabolical heart.
