Stone Barrington is faced with the biggest challenge of his life as Stuart Woods’s #1 New York Times bestselling series continues...
After an eventful trip to Bel-Air and a reunion with his sophisticated (and very wealthy) former love, Arrington Calder, confirmed bachelor Stone Barrington is looking to stay in New York and cash in on his partnership at Woodman & Weld. Not only is he a rainmaker of one of the riches white-shoe law firms in town, he’s back in his element. Manhattan, after all, is his home, and no one is better than Stone at navigating both its shadowy underworlds and its chic society.
But Arrington has other plans for Stone, and his life is about to take a turn he never imagined...

5By boots saddleGreat read. Some very sad incidents, but overall, a fine story with a proper ending.Son of stone
1By StockstudierGet a new ghost writer. This is tripe, tired and 9 th grade level.Son of Stone
1By Moot 32The demise of Stuart Woods continues. He just gets worse and worse. I'm through. This will be the last Woods book on which I waste my time and money.Really?
1By Living a DreamNever again will I buy another book by Woods. Elementary writing, dull reading, no plot, I couldn't even finish it.Son of Stone
4By BLTn707Very good, quick read; typical Stuart Woods to some extent. Only one surprise that was dealt with in an interesting fashion. On to the next one by Woods!Liked it!
3By Teddy-MacI was surprised as I read the other reviews. I was excited to see Stone reunited with his one true love -- this was a long-ago started romance that Stuart's avid and devoted readers have waited a very long time to conclude. Albeit, in this book, somewhat predictable, I believe Stuart did a beautiful job telling a completely different story while trying to maintain Stone's character integrity -- he had to do much of that in very concise writing. I loved meeting, Peter, Hattie and Ben -- they're all I hoped they'd be!JD
2By J1e2d3I agree with others. I really enjoy Stuart Woods, but this left me wanting. Not much depth and several story lines just dropped. Hope next book picks up.Son of stone
1By Read2uI have never written a review before but this book was a waste of my money! S. Woods should be ashamed to sucker his followers in purchasing this folly of a book.Son of Stone stinker
1By dany2Shame on Mr Stuart. I feel insulted. At first I thought it was me, I have been reading more literally challenging books and I was thinking that this book was not up to par, but then I soon realized that this book was just writing at its worst. I felt like I was reading a not very good first time author. I never looked at the reviews because I have always enjoyed Stuarts books. I will not make that mistake again. If I could have returned this book I would have.Worst stone book yet
1By ReagandogThis is by far the worst stone Barrington book to date. Very disappointing. Stuart woods has turned this character into a joke. talk about copying a Clive cussler story line. Give me a break.Terrible
1By NOLAbackspaceI've been a great fan of Stuart Woods for years. His slick prose and deft plots make a refreshing light read; however reading of Stone Barrington's perfect life and effortless accomplishmnet was a little wearing. Son of Stone carries it too far. His son is even more able and life is more effortless. His mom gets blasted by a shotgun; hey guess what i inherited! Need into Columbia; hey, he's too brilliant not to be accepted. It's a nice life but just too saccahrine. Let Stone age gracefully; the Son of Stone doesn't need to take-over.Very predictable
1By Polish HamWhat a shame. I'm less and less pleased with Wood's recent offerings. This one was a new low.Son of stone
2By sw100Not the best of Wood's books. A little boring and very predictable.Son of Stone
5By ZrotkivAnother winner.We get it...
3By scotty loweWe get it, they're insanely rich and elite. Quick read as usual but got nauseous every other page when their lifestyle was discussed. Want to punch Peter in the face.Awful
1By Dsg357Shame on the author, and publisher. We get it, the characters have a lot of money and can do whatever they want including changing a child's birth certificate to make the kid older. There, I've just told the entire plot. What crap!!!!!Son of stone
5By Leanne AngelaGreat book. Keeps you interested and ready for the next one!Son of Stone
1By SLZ TahoeHis books keep slipping in quality and now have hit rock bottom. This is just an awful book with an idiotic plot that doesn't really surface until the book is 75% done. The dialogue is "campy". Don't waste your time like I did.Son of Stone
5By Ruru3711Loved the story. I think all of Stone's followers have been waiting for this for a long time. It' s typical Stone. I do not think Stone's adventures would have been appropriate until this story had been told. The story is captivating and is a page turner that passes too quickly.
