Synopses & Reviews
The thrillers featuring the smooth and charming Stone Barrington have been climbing bestseller lists nationwide, but none with more success than
Dirty Work, which
Publishers Weekly called "as sleek and engaging as the upper-class lifestyle of its appealing hero" and
The New York Times hailed as "enjoyable and as disarming as ever."
Stone Barrington is, once again, right at home in New York City; but this time he is joined by the tenacious Holly Barker from Orchid Blues, the lady police chief of Orchid Island, Florida. In Reckless Abandon, Holly finally makes it to Manhattan, hot on the trail of an evil fugitive from her jurisdiction. Stone is, well, glad to see her, right up until the moment when her presence creates a great danger to both of them and to their surprise, she becomes the pursued, not the pursuer.
Review
"It's double the pleasure and double the fun as Woods brings series character Holly Barker, chief of the Orchid Beach, Fla., police department...onstage to co-star with PI Stone Barrington...in his latest adventure." Publisher's Weekly
Review
"A skeletal thriller, evidently written on the back of a series of cocktail napkins, that's most notable...as a pretext for bringing [Woods's] stable of stock heroes and villains into different permutations with nary a new idea in sight." Kirkus Reviews
