Sixkill, Robert B. Parker 2011

A short, classic Spenser/Silverman story introducing what is likely to become a new regular character in future Spenser books, Zebulon Sixkill, a Cree, ex-college football star and now an alcoholic, pill-popping bodygaurd for a disgusting movie star named Jumbo Nelson.  When Jumbo is facing a murder charge, Martin Quirk and Rita Fiore ask Spenser to look into the matter.  Good dialogue but this series should end here!
