Standup Guy Description
Stone Barrington is back in the newest edge-of-your-seat adventure in the New York Times–bestselling series. Stone Barrington’s newest client does not seem the type to bring mayhem in his wake. A polite, well-deported gentleman, he comes to Stone seeking legal expertise on an unusual—and potentially lucrative—dilemma. Stone points him in the right direction and sends him on his way, but it’s soon clear Stone hasn’t seen the end of the case. Several people are keenly interested in this gentleman’s activities and how they may relate to a long-ago crime . . . and some of them will stop at nothing to find the information they desire.
On a hunt that leads from Florida’s tropical beaches to the posh vacation homes of the Northeast, Stone finds himself walking a tightrope between ambitious authorities and seedy lowlifes who all have the same prize in their sights. In this cutthroat contest of wills, it’s winner-takes-all . . . and Stone will need every bit of his cunning and resourcefulness to be the last man standing.

Been reading Stone and Holly since the beginning but lately the stories have all been losing their ump. Had a hard time getting into this one as it is so ho hum and basically the same prose as in other installments. They've all gotten boring and rather unbelievable which to me means the writer is the one getting boring and unbelievable. I'm sure Stuart does not need the money badly enough to keep turning out sub class novels. Come on I want to see more plot to the works. Again. Like it use to be.
By Book Poor Teacher
Coming on the heels of the author's last "Stone Barrington" novel (released Oct, 2013) and only three months before the next Barrington sequel "Carnal Curiosity" to be released this April (2014) I wasn't terribly impressed with either the quality or originality of this particular book. The general impact of the novel has merit, but the characters and plot could have stood a bit more pre-planning, thought and additional effort. If you enjoyed "Doing Hard Time" you will not be disappointed with this one.
