A special gift for the holiday seasonā€”a rumination on Christmas as conceived by Robert B. Parker.

ā€œBrann does a seamless jobā€¦Diehard Parker fans will be delighted.ā€ ā€”Publishers Weekly

Itā€™s December in Boston, and Spenser is busy planning the menu for Christmas dinner when heā€™s confronted in his office by a young boy named Slide. Homeless and alone, Slide has found refuge with an organization named Street Business, which gives shelter and seeks job opportunities for the homeless and lost.

Slideā€™s mentor, Jackie Alvarez, is being threatened, and Street Business is in danger of losing its tenuous foothold in the community, turning Slide and many others like him back on the street. But itā€™s not a simple case of intimidationā€”Spenser, aided by Hawk, finds a trail that leads to a dangerous drug kingpin, whose hold on the at-risk community Street Business serves threatens not just the boysā€™ safety and security, but their lives as well. 

Unfinished at the time of his death, Silent Night was completed by Parkerā€™s longtime agent, whose decades-long association with Parkerā€™s work gives her unique insight and perspective to his voice and storytelling style. Her contribution also speaks volumes about their enduring friendship.
