Rating:

This Stone Barrington novel is superb, as is the plot, pacing, and characters. Most enjoyable is Woods' crisp frequently humorous language. Both good and bad persons from previous Woods novels appear, which is delightful for those who read about them previously, but even people who meet them here for the first time, will enjoy the experience.

Stone decides to help his now very rich ex-girl friend who wants to keep a movie company intake. Her now deceased husband owned a large share in the business. There are about two dozen share holders. A vicious wealthy crook wants to buy all the shares, destroy the film company and build a hotel. He even kills people who do not sell him their shares.
