Publisher Description

 Stuart Woods is in top form…and so is his perennially popular hero, Stone Barrington!

When a hedge fund billionaire hires Stone Barrington to talk some sense into his wayward son, it seems like an easy enough job; no one knows the hidden sins and temptations of the ultra-wealthy better than Stone. But as Stone and his erstwhile protégé, Herbie Fisher, probe deeper into the case—and an old one comes back to haunt him---he realizes that even he may have underestimated just how far some people will go to cover up their crimes…and plan new ones.

From Manhattan’s mahogany-paneled law offices to its modern penthouse lofts and dimly lit nightclubs, the trail of entrapment and murder leads to a shocking act that no one could ever have anticipated.

"Too much Herbie in this title, but I did love having more Dino and his office actually working a crime. Of course, I love Stone! I would actually enjoy a title with all Dino and Stone just showing up through the chapters when him and Dino had dinner or needed to discuss the case. :o)"

    " as others is have stated stone plays a more supportive role in this novel, whereas herbie (herb now) fischer takes center stage. i still enjoyed the overall stories that were intertwined to make the complete plot, at parts more than a little predictable. it did take a bit to pick up pace wise from the beginning but i think that can happen often with woods writings.

    " I'm getting tired of the same story. I'm mad that Elaine died out of nowhere. Herbie is all of a sudden brilliant? Stone isn't a main character and Dino is acting like a fool. What happened to the good juicy thriller Stone books? These aren't good any more. "

    " Another good Stone Barrington book by Stuart Woods. I personally would have prefered the story to include young Mr. Barrington. I think his addition since Son of Stone has opened up a boatload of possibilities but as of yet Woods has yet to really scratch the surface. "
