This fifth entry in the popular Stone Barrington series features the smooth-talking attorney with the opulent lifestyle once again hip-deep in intrigue, court battles and fine dining. Although Stone manages to stay a likeable character, despite his somewhat ambiguous moral choices, in this book Arrington becomes as annoying as the psychotic Dolce is amusing, leading long-time fans to hope that Stone's long-running obsession for the self-centered Mrs. Calder is finally petering out. Woods' skewering of the Hollywood scene is extremely funny, and Stone's escapades are as entertaining as ever, making for another great, light-hearted read from the talented Stuart Woods.
