Strategic Moves by Stuart Woods - Book Review

Did you like Magnum PI with Tom Selleck?

If yes, then you will enjoy the Stuart Woods, Stone Barrington novel series.  They are always fun, face paced mysteries written with a touch of humor and sarcasm.

In the latest aptly named, Strategic Moves, Barrington finds himself a pawn in a game where he doesn't have all the pieces.  There is a financial "madoff" type crisis, a terrorist escape, oh and did we mention his latest romantic interest turns up dead?

This books works because even with all the crazy twists and turns it never overcomplicates itself and never loses it's sense of humor.  And, while at times you will think Barrington is a jerk, like when he goes out to dinner after finding out the girlfriend is dead, you will admire his ability to plan his various moves for himself and his clients throughout the book. 

Author, Woods also gives Barrington some new life with some sudden financial windfalls and some interesting new characters to work with in future novels, maybe we'll see some in Bel-Air Dead his next book due out April 26th.Bel-Air Dead (Stone Barrington)
