Critic reviews

"This venture into espionage territory makes a refreshing change from the criminal skullduggery Stone usually faces." (Publishers Weekly)

"Smooth, easy-reading escapism in the trademark Woods style." (Booklist)

almost 15 star

interesting story line I was concerned at first that the book was not long enough. and as usual the narrator is fine

Boring

Very predictable. Too much sex not enough story It was reminiscent of the first book. Sex sex sex!!!

Abrupt ending

While I enjoyed this book for the most part, the ending was quite disappointing. It was very poorly developed and the end came abruptly.

Nearing the end

Since the passing of Mr. woods I have been listening to all his novels again. The Barrington books still hold my interest and I find the narration by Mr. Roberts to be a great match to the series. I am surprised that HIV was never addressed in any of the novels,m. With all the partners Stone acquired I would have have thought stone would have had a weekly standing appointment at a testing location…Mr. Woods had an opportunity to make a point and I am sorry that he missed it.

I want to say thank you to Mr.
Woods for the many hours of entertainment that I have had listening to his stories and for a job well done.

More of the same

While I always enjoy the Stone Barrington novels, and especially love Tony Roberts' reading, that Stone continues to be bestowed with more money, more houses, more promotions, and more "love" interests has almost reached the ridiculous. I read somewhere that Stuart Woods consciously writes about wealth, knowing that it's more fun to read about rich people than poor people, it does make Stone Barrington seem almost supernaturally lucky. Nothing seems to go wrong for him.

But again, it's still a fun read and great for the car.

struggled

struggled to finish The narrator is just horrible the way he does voices is so creepy and distracts from the story

Typical Stone sex romp

I am a real fan of the Stone Barrington series. Although I enjoyed this book, I felt that the story was a bit weaker than the normal ones that I have more thoroughly enjoyed

too kinky fir me

too manipulative and strange. there are few books I stop listening to, but the sexual and political, and not nice people I just no longer wanted to listen to i should have returned it!

Stealth

Probably my fault but I couldn’t grasp the story concept and why it took so long to get to the ending story.

Interesting as usual

Good as usual, but a little different than the normal. Will his new position take Stuart Woods writing a totally new direction? I hope not
