Product Description
Stone Barrington thought he'd heard the last of former girlfriend Arrington after she left him to marry Vance Calder, Hollywood's hottest star. The last thing Stone expected was a desperate call from Calder. Arrington has vanished, and her new fiancé wants Stone to come to LA and find her. In a town where the sharks drive Bentleys and no one can be trusted, Stone soon discovers he's drowning in a sea of empty clues that takes him from Bel Air to Malibu to Rodeo Drive. Running out of time and leads, he needs to keep his head above water and find Arrington fast, or end up swimming with the fishes himself.

This is another great book from Stuart Woods. Love that Stone Barrington! I've read all Stuart Woods' books & would recommend every single one of them.

I like all of Stuart Woods books. From the very first chapter he keeps you wanting to see what happens next.My husband and I both love to read his books. We like the Stone Barrington books best.

When I'm into a good read, I will have that book by my side until it's finished.. I put this book down for 5 days and nearly forgot about it! If that tells you much..
I have been caught in a spell of finding horribly boring books lately, where this book was recommended as "an amazing story." How could you go wrong with that?, I thought. Yeah well, to my disappointment, I was bored through this entire book. There were so many different characters and names to remember, I got lost a nearly gave up in the beginning. Forcing myself to finish the book, I was hoping for a possible twist ending to wake me up, but that never happened. I ended up skipping about 30-40 pgs to get to the last chapter -just to see how it ends (so I could start on a real page turner). Little to my surprise it was a depressing ending. How do books like these get published? Honestly!?
 Woods is a quick read, but pretty lousy March 30, 2007

This book was better than Dark Harbor (the first and most recent book I have read from this author), but not much better. I like Woods' style of writing, it is quick and to the point, but his plots are so ridiculous, it's hard to get through. His books should be half as long because all his characters go around in circles about a dozen times. He's got to come up with some better names: Stone? Arrington? Dino? Ippolito? Barrington? C'mon, buddy.
What else can I say, it's slightly less stupid than Dark Harbor. Stone really needs to dump Arrington and get a better friend than Dino.
This book doesn't have any plot twists or multiple suspects to care about. And the direction he gets the reader to go in from the beginning is never touched upon until the last four pages.
Excellent read February 19, 2007

He makes the books very exciting and I just want to hurry and read it so I know how it ends. To keep a person attached to a book like that takes a lot of talent, and he's got it.
