review 1: The President wants a year-old homicide reinvestigated so the CIA calls in two men from New York who do sometime work for them. One is a New York detective; the other is a lawyer who was formerly a police detective. They are to quietly check out all the evidence collected a year ago and see if they find anything new. In searching for the killer, they end up with new bodies to find the murderers of, who somehow are tied to the original murder. Every time they seem to be making headway another woman is murdered.
review 2: D. C Dead is yet another story of Stone Barrington. This time we see the lawyer/former homicide detective, working for the CIA and the first family. It seems there was a murder/suicide at the White House and the President doesn't believe the off... moreicial reports. Barrington and his friend, NYPD Homicide detective Dino Bishetti, (sp?) are contracted to dig deeper. They do dig deeper and we find a convoluted series of affairs and bedroom activities (as usual with Barrington) before all the answers become clear. As is too often the case with the Barrington novels, there are loose ends at the end--perhaps to be picked up in yet another novel. Pleasant read if you like this laid back style of detection. less
