Talk • Booksigning

Robert B. Parker returns with Blue Screen, his fifth novel in the celebrated Sunny Randall series. In Blue Screen, Sunny – the Boston P.I. with a personal life as tangled as those of her clients—is hired on as bodyguard to Erin Flint, an up-and-coming starlet. But very quickly, she discovers some ugly truths behind Erin’s spin-doctored façade.

"Parker can spin a tale with the best of them—most of the time, he is the best of them. He riffs smoothly off Sunny’s blue mood,”
— The New York Times Book Review

Robert B. Parker is the author of almost fifty books, including the recent Jesse Stone bestseller, Sea Change. He lives in Boston with his wife Joan.
