“Stone Barrington, attorney/private investigator with a large NY law firm, is a former NYPD detective. Thad Shames wants Stone to find the “spectacular” woman he met at a party the previous weekend. Her name was Liz, she was attractive, “retired” from marriage, and was seen boarding a plane for Palm Beach. It so happens, Thad, who is to launch a major internet IPO, has a home in Palm Beach complete with a two hundred and twenty-two foot yacht. The yacht will become Stone’s home while working on the investigation. While in Palm Beach Stone is surprised to meet a woman he thought was dead…
During the story Stone meets a number of women, all current or former lovers. And brushes shoulders with the rich and famous of Palm Beach. The story with its descriptions of grandeur and sexual encounters became ridiculous and tedious. I won’t be looking for more in this series.
