This might be interesting as well as informational...  My son downlods talking books for me... Because I want mysteries...and he is not a fan sometimes we run into a communication glitch. Tonight we were discussing some books he's doing for me and........ 1. Is Robert B. Parker still writing? 2. His early books had ??? as the detective? There was also a TV series featuring ??? acted by Stacy Keatch ...based in Boston. Thanks.....

Carol, seems like Robert B. Parker is a very prolific author. The detective is called Spenser, apparently. Latest books he has published: Hundred-Dollar Baby (2006) Now and Then (2007) High Profile (2007) Rough Weather (2008) Stranger In Paradise (2008) Chasing the Bear: A Young Spenser Novel (2009) Night and Day (2009) here's the full list and a bio: Robert B. Parker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carol! I have read every single one of his books - I am his #1 fan! It was Robert Urich who played Spenser in the TV movies.

Wonderful! OK, here goes with too little info...... A few years ago, I picked up a paperback and loved it, wanted to get more of this series...... I can't remember whether the author or main character was Amy? Anne? Started with an A I am pretty sure. The scenario was: the main character had inherited a brownstone from her aunt, a lesbian PI, the main character, a young woman, fell into a mystery and picked up her aunt's business. There was an older man who lived in the "basement" who had known her aunt and worked with her. This series was set in the 1920's or 30's. I know it is a shot in the dark, but it has niggled at me many times.
