review 1: This book is very far along in a series so I didn't know the complete background of the main character, Stone Barrington, and didn't understand why, if he was a lawyer, he has so many contacts within the CIA and other government agencies. With all that said the book was pretty g...

review 1: I stopped reading Stuart Woods books a few years ago; they were all the same, especially the Stone Barrington stories: everyone is rich, sexy, and lots of sexual action. I enjoyed the Holly Barker and Will Lee characters more. This book has a mix of characters, with the exception...

review 1: If it wasn't for the plot development and the dialogue between Stone Barrington and best bud Dino B. I would more than likely NOT read these books. The sexual escapades with specific details is BORING and detracts from the story line. Every time this author has the main charact...

review 1: This book wasn't very surprising as Stuart Woods seems to have gotten stuck in his writing, using the same formula for his Stone novels. A predictable dose of Knob Creek, Elaine's for dinner, flying and an insane amount of money passing between people with injected scenes of lazy...

review 1: A somewhat different theme for a Stone Barrington story. This is more about a terrorist plot to assassinate the US president with a nuclear bomb at the opening of a hotel in California than the usual NYC crime story. Secondary character Holly Barker plays the major role in this b...
