Summary: An entertaining entry in the Stone Barrington series.
Comment: Stone Barrington is back, and this time he is on the loose in New York City.
Assigned by his law firm to aide a client in the dumping of her unfaithful husband, Stone thinks this case to be "dirty work", but when a dead body turns up he realizes there is more to this case than meets the eye.
As Stone begins looking for answers he runs into Carpenter, the beautiful British agent he met while in London. Carpenter is in New York for her own investigation, on a case she is not willing to discuss, but the deeper Stone probes the more he gets the feeling her case is related to his.
Teaming with his ex-partner Dino, Stone hits the streets of Manhattan in search of a very dangerous woman with the answers to a bizarre and complicated crime.
'Dirty Work' is a fun, enjoyable novel...one that will keep readers guessing. The Stone Barrington bestsellers are mysteries filled with surprises, sexy vixens, rogue heroes and intriguing plot lines, and this is one of the better entries in the series.
Stuart Woods can always be depended upon to create an original, fast-paced thriller, and 'Dirty Work' is a great way to spend a few hours in an easy chair.
Expect to see this on all the lists.

Summary: ENTHRALLING LISTENING
Comment: Few protagonists in the thriller/crime genre have proven to be as popular as Stone Barrington, once a lawyer now a cop. He's sophisticated, sexy, smart - everything readers could want. And he's given a voice laced with all of those qualities by able performer Tony Roberts
Stone is hired to catch Lawrence Fortescue in the act - the act of being unfaithful to his wife, a rich-as-all-get-out woman who wants photographic proof of her mate's infidelity. To this end Stone hires a photographer who turns out to be a bumbler. The cameraman falls through a skylight onto the wandering husband who is then declared dead.
Problem is he was poisoned, his playmate disappears, and the photog is charged with murder.
The only pleasant surprise for Stone is running into Carpenter, the gorgeous British agent he met in past adventures. She's now in the Big Apple on an assignment of her own. Before long we learn that her life is also on the line.
Stone Barrington and Stuart Woods - what a pair! Imaginative, woven with surprising twists and turns, "Dirty Work" is enthralling listening.

Summary: A drop dead good read
Comment: What a read. Fast paced, strongly developing plot with a twist here and there, and characters that are at once believeable, Dirty Work is a book worth your time to read.
Stone Barrington is retained by Woodman & Weld to catch a wayward husband while he's seeding new pastures. However, the person he puts on the case ends up falling on the target of the investigation, killing him. One thing leads to another and we find that the person the husband was with in an internationally wanted intelligence agent nicknamed La Biche. This agent has sworn an oath to kill members of a British intelligence team of which the wayward husband was a member (talk about loving your work).
Enough. I don't want to ruin it for you. If you've read any of Woods other books you know you're in for a treat. I am relatively new to this author, but have found him to be a master storyteller. If you're new to Stuart Woods then I predict you'll be back after you finish this one.
