Shoot Him If He Runs (Stone Barrington Novels)
Date undefinedCan't believe I used the word "borish" (first time in my life) but that seems to describe this dime store detective novel the best. The author obviously has bone to pick with conservatives and republicans and wants women to speak like horney 16 year old boys. Unfortunatly the great plot gets sidetracked by the author's desires and it kills what could be a great book. I through it away so no one else had to read it.

Date undefinedI like to read. I read lots of books. Once I start a book, I want to finish it. Not this book. It's a 2 week book from my library and in 2 weeks of trying to read it, I'm not even half way through it.
The concept behind the story is interesting - try to find a guy who changes his identity. The location is a tropical island. The story moved along at the speed of someone trying to run in mud. There were random instances of nude swimming and sunbathing thrown in, I'm not sure what that was about.
I thought this would be an interesting book reading the flap and maybe it's interesting to somebody, but not me!

Date undefinedI've read the entire Stone Barrington series back to back, and this one is very uneventful and quite a disappointment. There's nothing new or exciting about this book -- and the Holly Barker character adds no value or interest to the story line (which is true in most of the cases where Stuart Woods uses her character with Stone). If you love Stone and just want to keep up with the series read this, but otherwise you're not missing anything.
