Description

In this action-packed thriller in Stuart Woods’s #1 New York Times bestselling series, Stone Barrington discovers that some jobs don’t pay…

When a hedge fund billionaire hires Stone Barrington to talk some sense into his wayward son, it seems like an easy enough job; no one knows the hidden sins and temptations of the ultra-wealthy better than Stone. But as Stone and his erstwhile protégé, Herbie Fisher, probe deeper into the case—and an old one comes back to haunt him—he realizes that even he may have underestimated just how far some people will go to cover up their crimes, and commit new ones.

    Very good Stone/Herbie yarn. Another five star Woods tale of life in the Big City. 👍

    Stone Barrington meets Jerry Seinfeld - a book about nothing. I agree with others that this once entertaining series has been heading downhill for several installments. Woods writes as if his readers haven't read the previous books in the series. Names change, dead people are alive in the next book, character traits change dramatically overnight, Stone's child was born a girl in one book, then is a boy in all subsequent books, Arrington left her Bel-air estate to Stone in one book, to Peter in another. This one offers at least one new twist, Stone meets a beautiful woman that he doesn't bed in the first five minutes! And boy do these people drink! I imagine the final installment will have all the characters dying off from cirrhosis of the liver. Add to all this that the book is full of typos and one wonders if anyone is editing these. Woods is cranking these out about every four months, and it shows. Too bad.
  • Inconsistency!

    WTH!?! He keeps changing the names of people from previous books and now he changed how the outcome of Arringtons Killer turned out? Very irritating! I wont be buying anymore books from this author as they just keep getting worse and he apparently has no decent proof readers, etc!

    I don't know why I wasted my money. I've read every book in the Stone series and they keep getting progressively worse. I'll never buy, or read, another one.

    I'm a disappointed fan........not much substance here! I guess this is an attempt to wean us off Stone & Dino onto Herbie. I hope Stone is not being put out to pasture.......if so, count me out. BillyBob939

    I thought son of stone was a bad read....this one was worse...I could barely make it through and I like the stone barrington franchise. Don't your time or money! Stuart...if this is the best you can do, why bother?

    This is the worst novel I have ever read. No plot. Just like watching an episode of Law and Order. Please refund my money.

    I am a huge fan of Stone Barrington and Dino novels by Mr Woods. Personally, I enjoy easy reading. I don't enjoy having to think over and over about who is who. I liked it even though it is not one of his best. I was sorry Elaine was dead!

    A long-term reader of Stuart Woods' novels, I am always fascinated by the thrilling travails of Stone Barrington and Dino. This was a bit of a disappointment, a "light" version with Herbie Fisher the primary character. Wouldn't chose to read another like it. But if you can write meaty parts for Stone, I'll remain loyal. Best, Patricia from San Diego

    I liked the book but it was rather skimpy. There wasn't enough book. I'm surprised that this was the best Mr. Woods could do considering his previous books

    Pretty slow reading. It really wasn't about anything. It would not be a book I would suggest to my friends. I am disappointed. Too expensive for very little substance.
