     April 16, 2001
     In the seventh thriller featuring cop-turned-lawyer Stone Barrington and his old sidekick NYPD Lt. Dino Bacchetti, the prolific and urbane Woods is at the top of his consistently bestselling form. In the middle of a New York City blizzard, Thad Shames, a wealthy computer tycoon, offers Stone a small fortune and the opportunity to escape the arctic cold if he will fly to glitzy Palm Beach, Fla., and find a femme fatale Shames knows only as Liz. With the help of Callie Hodges, Shames's sensual young Girl Friday, Stone wastes little time finding Liz, but discovers she is really Allison Manning, a woman he saved from the gallows a few years back (Dead in the Water, 1997). Now known as Elizabeth Harding, she fears her first husband—a murderer who Stone believed had been executed—is alive and may be stalking her. Not to be deterred from wooing and wedding Liz, Shames asks Stone to protect her. Stone himself is besieged by women: first, the delectable Callie, then his old girlfriend Arrington Calder (L.A. Dead, 2000) and finally, Liz, who suggests a ménage à trois
     with Callie. In the midst of these amorous adventures, Stone consults Dino back in New York, trying to ID a man who fits the stalker's description, and Dino flies in just in time to be involved in a shootout in a Worth Avenue restaurant. Loaded with perfumed sex, sleek jets and yachts, lavish homes, boutiques, gourmet cuisine, quirky twists and nonstop action, Woods's pulpy pedestrian plot is grand fun. Simultaneous audio. (Apr. 23)Forecast:As frothy as ever, but more carefully plotted than
     L.A. Dead, Woods's latest should scale the charts, given a hefty boost by the book clubs (Doubleday and Mystery Guild main selections; BOMC and Literary Guild alternate selections), a national ad/promo campaign and a 15-city author tour.Correction: The publication month of On the Water, by H.M. van den Brink (Fiction Forecasts, April 2), is July.

   • content: Lawyer-detective Stone Barrington has to endure the excruciating existence of life aboard a luxury yacht in Palm Beach to solve his latest case, in which an old client turns up with a new identity. The key to the puzzle involves her marriage to Barrington's new client, a wealthy software developer. Dick Hill obviously enjoys the fast pace of the detective novel and delivers an enthusiastic performance. His male characters--Barrington; his Brooklyn police partner; and his ex-wife's Italian family all carry convincing vocalizations. However, he falls far short of the mark with his female characters. Nearly indistinguishable from one another, all sound simpering, stupid, and soulless. Hill's women nearly spoil an otherwise enjoyable production. R.P.L. (c) AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine

   • content: The seventh in the popular Stone Barrington series takes place in glamorous Palm Beach, Florida. A selective use of music and sound effects enhances the mood of this detective story filled with expensive cars, beautiful women, and yachts. Peel away the fluff, and you'll find a story filled with enough twists and intrigue to make it difficult to put down. Tony Roberts's gravelly voice brings a splendid touch of earthiness to cop-turned-lawyer Barrington. Yet at the same time, he is able to change the rhythm and texture of his delivery to successfully shift to the female characters in the story. It's hard to imagine another voice that would have added more to the presentation than Tony Roberts's. F.L.F. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
