The Boxer and the Spy

About the Book

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Spenser novels comes a gripping young adult thriller in the heart-pounding world of boxing.

When a shy high school student’s body is found washed up on the shore of a quiet New England beach town—an alleged suicide linked to steroids—fifteen-year-old boxer-in-training Terry Novak isn’t sure what to think.

It doesn’t take long, though, before they learn that asking questions puts them in grave danger and that survival is going to be a fight. . . .
