Robert B. Parker's Grudge Match

Robert B. Parker's Grudge Match features the return of beloved PI Sunny Randall as she navigates a case that blurs the line between friend and foe. If Sunny can't discern the difference, the consequences could be deadly.

When Sunny's long-time gangster associate, Tony Marcus, approaches her for help, she is taken aback. Despite their recent fallout over a double-crossed deal, Tony believes Sunny owes him. Willing to clear the slate, Sunny considers his case.

Tony's trusted girlfriend and business partner has vanished suddenly, and he is at a loss as to why. He only wants to speak with her, he claims. Sunny, sceptical of Tony's good intentions, is nonetheless intrigued by the missing woman. Against all odds, she has achieved a position of power within Tony's criminal enterprise. Sunny admires her and, should the woman be in trouble, she wishes to assist.

Yet, the stakes escalate when a witness is murdered just hours after speaking to Sunny. It's evident there's more at play than Tony's romantic concerns. Somebody—perhaps even Tony—wants the woman silenced and will go to any length to achieve it.
