Book Description:
Smooth-talking New York lawyer Stone Barrington, along with his sidekick, NYPD detective Dino Bacchetti, get dragged into an impossible case in Stone's entertaining 13th outing (after Dark Harbor). Stone's bosses at the high-class law firm of Woodman and Weld want him to sue major league Mafia don Carmine Dattila for beating up a character from earlier Stone adventures, the hapless Herbie Fisher. It's all pretty much good funthe snappy repartee, hot sex, dinner at Elaine's, comedic Mafia hoodlums with names like Sammy Tools, Johnny Pop and Dattila the Hununtil the tale turns darker with the introduction of a psychotic sculptor, Devlin Daltry, who's the ex-boyfriend of Stone's current flame, Celia Cox, a tall, fabulously beautiful masseuse. Woods delivers few surprises, but there are plenty of laughs as the pages speed by. Series regulars and newcomers alike will be perfectly satisfied.

Marianna S. (Herbie Fisher, Esquire is back! Stone's loser acquaintance, Herbie Fisher, is back, this time with a mail-order law degree, and he wants to sue Mafioso Dattila the Hun. Bodies are flying everywhere. Stone Barrington solves two mysteries in his usual debonaire manner. One of the better recent Stone Barrington novels, this one will have you laughing at the witty repartee.
Anissa S. (I love Stuart Woods's books espeically the Stone Barrington series this is another great read in this series. Very funny and all in all a terrfic read. I highly recommend this book.
Stuart Woods is one of my favorites, and this is definitely his best so far. It's the usual suspense, murder and mayhem. Loser Herbie Fisher is one of the main characters in this one, and it's pretty funny. This has no dull moments whatever, a fun ride.
Jenny J. (Stone embarks on his most dangerous adventure yet when a chance encounter with the wrong man sends him straight into the heart of New York's Mafia underworld. (From dust jacket)
This is another Barrington goody. Hanging out on a sunny afternoon with Stone is one of life's little pleasures! :o)
Teresa S. (First Stuart Woods book I have read...its OK, but a little too much dialogue for my liking
