Book Description:
Stone Barrington is lured from Elaine's to New England and the genteel but cut-throat world of priceless antiques, historic homes, and lavish country estates. In a place dominated by bluebloods and their inherited wealth, along with the noveau riche, there are surprisingly few rules of engagement, and Stone finds himself navigating a dangerous course, one where even the most expensive and sought-after status symbols are sometimes stolen and sometimes clever fakes, though no less priceless.

If you like the Stone Barrington series, you should probably read this book, just to read it. It was not one of his better books. Enough already about how rich everyone is and unless you have a better than average understanding of the antique business (I'm not part of that group) you might get a little bogged down with some of the details of the antiques. And does he really have to go to bed with every women he meets?

I've read all of the Stone Barrington books, but the last few are lacking. I still really enjoy the recurring characters, but the stories/plots have been almost boring the past 2 or 3 books. I feel like the author needs to slow down in writing and actually develop an interesting plot instead of trying to churn out books so quickly. The older Stone Barrington books are great - the newer ones I've found hard to even finish.

Not my favorite of Woods' books. The author is getting a little too chauvinistic for my taste - the women are all "girls" and seem to serve only one purpose in the story. The plot and characters are familiar with all the favorites - Stone, Elaine, Dino, etc. I'd certainly recommend that you read it but, if you're female, prepare to be annoyed at 'your' role in the novel.

ONE OF STUART WOODS GOOD BOOKS. FOLLOWS ALONG WITH STONE BARRINGTON'S WAYS. GOOD READ.
(Something a bit lighter than some of Woods' stories, this one leads the reader into the world of antiques, the people who reproduce them for fun and profit, and those who might even kill to own them. A fun as well as informative read.
Jim P. (This is the newest Stone Barrington Novel. As always, you never know what Stone gets himself into.
