Resumen del Editor

Stone Barrington is back. Stuart Woods has created no better known or loved character than the ex-cop, Manhattan attorney, and investigator whose work treads the thin line between the respectable practice of law and the dark side of humanity.

In Dead in the Water, Stone has hardly arrived in St. Marks, a lovely Caribbean island nation, on a sailing vacation when something very strange happens: A beautiful young woman sails into the harbor, entirely alone on a large yacht. Before long she is under the intense scrutiny of the local authorities, in the very considerable person of Sir Winston Sutherland, the minister of justice. The problem is, though she arrived alone, she had departed the other side of the Atlantic in the company of her husband, a well-known writer, who is no longer in evidence.

Evidence is what fascinates Stone Barrington, and he is all that stands between the apparently innocent Allison Manning and the patently evil intent of Sir Winston, whose motives are unclear. What is clear is that the St. Marks system of justice bears little resemblance to the American courts to which Stone is accustomed and that his smallest error could prove fatal to his client.

Dead in the Water is a roller-coaster ride, teeming with the plot twists that have made the novels of Stuart Woods New York Times best sellers and international hits.

A very interesting, twisty tale

This is perhaps among the best of the Stone Barrington series, and provides the groundwork for a lot of later books. I found myself always interested in the characters, plot, and setting, and of course Tony Roberts was perfect as a reader.

Stuart Woods at his best.

From the storyline and narration it will keep your attention.
I am a big fan of Woods because of the depth of the characters and plot twists.

A real surprise twist

I always enjoy the Stone Barrington stories and antics, but this one had a twist that I did not, and, unfortunately, that does not happen often. This book was a true pleasure to read or, actually, listen to 😉👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Dead in the Water

loved it but it seems as though some stories aren't in the exact order. loved the story nonetheless

Suspenseful

Did not see the ending coming. It was one that kept me on the edge of my seat.

surprise ending

really liked this book. a lot of twists and turns. Didn't know he faked his death till the end.

No St. Marc trip.

like a lot .very different twist to a mystery story but gives that though of what really happens behind the scenes of tropical islands.

Great Except for So Many Graphic Sex Scenes

Woods is such a great story teller, but his graphic sex scenes start to get old.

very good

was a good book for my daily commute to work. this being my first book from this author I would like to see what other books can be downloaded.

the accents are atrocious.

The 3rd book in the series is getting a bit formulaic, but not enough to keep me from reading the next.
But seriously I'm going to find the book in print so I don't have to hear those horrendous voices.
