Hot Pursuit

By: Stuart Woods

Narrated by: Tony Roberts

Stone Barrington is back in the exciting new adventure from perennial fan favorite Stuart Woods.

It’s not often that Stone Barrington finds a woman as accustomed to the jet-set lifestyle as he, so he’s pleasantly surprised when he meets a gorgeous pilot who’s soon moving to New York, and available for closer acquaintance. Their travels together lead them from Wichita to Europe, but trailing them is some unwanted baggage: his new lady love’s unstable, criminal ex-boyfriend.

And while Stone is fending off his newest adversary, trouble is brewing on the international stage. Several enemy operatives are at large, and only a coordinated intelligence effort will have any chance of stopping their deadly plot. But the clock is ticking . . . and time has nearly run out.

Okay, I guess, but disappointing

So, I loved Chiefs by Stuart Woods. I know the guy can write. I think he might have called it in on this one. It took it awhile to get going and there were two plots that I kept expecting to come together. Spoiler alert: They don't. Stone Barrington struck me as a lecherous and a little pompous old man. He could have been written completely out of the story and it wouldn't have made much difference. Millie was a good character. Perhaps he should base a series on her. Bottom line is that it wasn't awful, but I wish I hadn't used a credit on it.

very good book

very well written and kept ones interest until the end, and the story was well thought out with every one having a part to play at the conclusion

Short book, but enjoyable

I feel like Mr. Woods us doing some estate planning trying to produce as many books as possible each year. I enjoy them, but any two or three of them could be combined into one book at this point.

Disappointing and boring.

Lots and lots of uninteresting detail about Stone's new plane. Who cares? He jumps in and out of bed with any and all available women as usual. At least he spared us the graphic details this time. Of course they all find him irresistible and they are all drop dead gorgeous. Not much of a story, more about what exotic locations he travels to and what culinary delights he enjoys in what famous restaurants. Save your credit.

Entertaining

One of his best in years
Lots if different characters and situations . London scenes very hoid
Enjoyed listening to it .
