The "thriller" ascpects of this book were entirely incidental. There was not one unpredictable happening in the entire book. Not one funny line. Not one moment of genuine tension. And nobody behaved scandalously--a sincere disappointment. There was not one funny line in the entire book. I persevered. The book did not get better, but it beat listening to the news this past week. I cannot remember when I have read anything worse.

Unfortunately, Stone quickly learns that his new acquisition comes with some undesired strings attached—namely, a deadly mystery involving the complex relationships of the local gentry, and a relentless adversary who raises the stakes with every encounter.
My Thoughts: One thing that has brought me through 36 books in the Stone Barrington series is that Stuart Woods never wastes space with unnecessary words or descriptions and that he has brought Stone from a New York police detective to one of the most successful and richest men in the world The books don't have the blood and grit that I prefer in most mysteries but there is just something about the personalities that Woods has created with these characters that keep you turning pages to see where the situation is going to lead.
For several previous books it seemed that Woods had gone around the bend making Stone into a rich playboy, sleeping with everything that walked I am so glad for the return of Billy Barnett aka Teddy Fay , who was missing for the last few books. I wish Stuart Woods would develop a series around Billy, as he is one interesting character- a perfect mix of good and evil. Also happy to see that I can again give a decent star rating to this series.
Aug 01, Shannon Upton rated it did not like it. OK, this is the thirty-sixth Stone Barrington novel, and I will confess that I've only read one at most two of the others. So, it's possible I could be missing something here. There are probably great depths of backstory that I'm missing, and characters that I'm supposed to have great feelings for that I do not. I got this book almost on accident, and though I remembered not totally loving Stone Barrington from my first venture into his world, I figured I'd read it anyway.
That was a mistake. T OK, this is the thirty-sixth Stone Barrington novel, and I will confess that I've only read one at most two of the others.
This book was a three-hundred page description of what rich people do: how they fly here and there whenever the mood strikes them, as none of them have plans for the next day , purchase whatever they want instantly , improve and renovate what they just purchased also instantly, with the help of nonexistent hop-to-it building contractors, and even movie studios , and eat without gaining weight. The "mystery" here was a non-event, never actively pursued and solved almost as a side note at the end.
The "relentless adversary" was a thinly drawn idiot of a character with a stereotype shell of a wife. This books was painful to read and I can't believe I finished it, searching for the reason Stone has thirty-six books. I want my hours back. If you haven't read Stone Barrington books and would like to try I mean, there has to be something good in there somewhere, right? Feb 03, Nathan Flamank added it. It, along with the last twenty books put out by Woods' team of industrious monkeys, was given to me for free and its "Freeness" is the only reason I continue to read what can only be described as "toilet paper".
SB is without a doubt the worst novel I have read since, well, since the last Woods' monstrosity. The story what little there is is set mainly here in the UK and here the author really shows that his monkeys have no idea what they're typing out.
Anyone even remotely familiar with how things work here in the UK will discover mistakes so monumentally stupid that you'll soon be laughing out loud - there are too many mistakes to number and I wonder if Woods' monkeys have been introduced to Google. Truly awful from start to finish - luckily it only took a couple of hours to wade through.
My biggest hope concerning Woods and his band of merry Monkeys is that they're all struck down with some debilitating-writing-related but non-life threatening disease and the books stop coming.
Stone Barrington is back and this time he has been invited to England by his Friend in the British government who has a surprise for him. One of her neighbors has a "Stately Georgian home up for sale and the locals do not want just anybody to move in. Stone is eventually convinced to buy, and now is the owner of a moderate estate with servants, a resident hermit and an interior decorator who has been working on updating the mansion.

Naturally she and Stone make a connection as she completes her work. Stone's son Peter and his Hollywood film makers have a potential hit on their hands and also the threat of a law suit from a California Cult leader who is claiming the movie is about him and his group and their unsavory reputation.
Eventually the several characters all meet in England and Stone and his Hotel partnership end up buying the adjacent property to keep the Cult from setting up a base their. Tricks and turns, danger and Stones short lived romps and the expenditure of lots of money, light simple and a fast read. Mar 22, Montessahall Montessahall rated it it was ok. Predictable like all the other books in this series. In addition to the usual: planes, food, sex, liquor, cars and name dropping, the author now includes English country estates.
I will concede there are segments of the story that dealt with the villain are very funny. The writing and pace of the story is better than previous books in this series.
Still, the author needs to inject a dose of reality for the main character. Stone is as virile as he was in book one. How old is this character anyway Predictable like all the other books in this series. How old is this character anyway? With a grown, married son and the timeframe of previous books, he would be in his mid to upper 70's. Yet, he bed hops like a 20 year old and never pops a "little blue pill.
Mar 23, Richard rated it really liked it. Stone's son Peter, and Dino's son Ben, have produced a new movie which will be making it big debut. Unfortunately for them, the story line parallels very closely the life of a well-known preacher Dr. Don who is threatening everyone with all kinds of mayhem.
Stone and Dino send them to England to get them away from the preacher. Stone flies them all to England in his plane, and with Dame Felicity's urging purchases a country estate. When they discover that Dr.
Don and his cult of followers inte Stone's son Peter, and Dino's son Ben, have produced a new movie which will be making it big debut. Don and his cult of followers intend to purchase the estate next to Stone's, Stone and the Arrington group make a greater offer, and purchase the estate for a future hotel in the Arrington chain.
Don does not go quietly. What will come of all the plans that he has for Stone and all the others? Scandalous Behavior should have been combined with the previous book, Foreign Affairs, as it is just a continuation of that novel. I am struck by how out of touch with real life Stone appears to be, as he can just buy houses, cars, and whole new wardrobes, seemingly on a whim. This reads more like Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous than a novel about a lawyer who specializes in doing his firm's dirty work.
I wish that Stuart Woods would either allow Stone to return to the legal profession or to r Scandalous Behavior should have been combined with the previous book, Foreign Affairs, as it is just a continuation of that novel. I wish that Stuart Woods would either allow Stone to return to the legal profession or to retire him permanently. Jan 15, Don Gorman rated it it was ok. Stone Barrington books are my comfort food, and they do go down quickly. However, instead of using good beef in this one it feels at times like Woods used a little Hamburger Helper.
He writes four of these books a year and once in a while one of them suffers a little and this is the one. We have Stone and Dino's kids here, a new lady, a silly villain and the usual unbelievable exploits. Perfect escapist reading. Readers also enjoyed. About Stuart Woods. Stuart Woods.
