This was my first venture into reading Robert B. Parker. School Days is a quick read but is really satisfying. Spencer (the main character) is a no-nonsense man whose heart belongs to one person - even if she is far away! His mission is to solve a mystery behind a Columbine type school shooting -did the kids do it? How? Why? The characters can be somewhat cartoonish - but that just adds to the charm and humor of this book.
Warning : Spoiler don't read below if you don't want to know what happens!
The book is not a tidy novel where one can figure out everything from the first chapter. Parker does an excellent job of throwing twists, wrong turns and dead ends to keep the pages turning.
