Stardust (Parker novel)

Stardust is the 17th book in Robert B. Parker's Spenser series and first published in 1990.

Spenser investigates the stalking of Jill Joyce, a TV star.

Private investigator Spenser takes on a bodyguarding job, to protect a television actress, Jill Joyce, who has been getting harassing phone calls.

While at first there is speculation that the attractive, alcohol-loving star may be exaggerating the incidents for attention, Spenser realizes there is a serious danger when her stunt double is murdered.

[1] This book also features the first appearances of recurring Spenser characters Del Rio, Chollo, and Bobby Horse.
