No, this is a very well-known series, and its author is pretty much an icon in the genre in which he wrote.

It is Parker's first Spenser book. I wish I'd thought of Ed McBain first, though, I loved those 87th Precinct novels, too.

Indeed he does and very well, I am currently reading the 17th (and most recent) novel in his terrific series.
I love his protagonist!

I have the distinct feeling a good many of us have similar tastes in fiction. Is your book, by any chance, the first Jack Reacher novel, "Killing Floor"?
