Ceremony

Spenser is hired for a dollar to find April Kyle, a teenage girl who has run away and vanished into the underbelly of Boston's red-light district. As he and his partner Hawk dig deeper, the case spirals into a dangerous confrontation with a prostitution ring and a man named Poitras who is exploiting young women. The investigation takes Spenser through the gritty streets of the Combat Zone, where the line between a simple missing-persons case and a fight for a girl's life becomes razor-thin.
