I have been bingeing the Ed Eagle series by Woods. This is the third book and it takes off where SHORT STRAW left off. Ed's ex-wife Barbara is in jail awaiting the verdict for stealing Ed's money, fleeing to Mexico, attempting to kill two investigators, Cupie and Vittorio, sent there by Ed, and finally mistakenly killing a couple in a hotel who she thought was Ed and his girlfriend. Well Barbara manages to escape before the verdict but she needn't have bothered since she ends up being acquitted based on the testimony of her boyfriend who gave her an alibi. Before long, she meets a rich widower named Walter Keeler who had recently sold his electronics business for billions! Of course, Barbara marries Keeler who is then killed in an auto accident and so Barbara is set to inherit the billions. But will she? Then as an additional problem for Ed, he takes on another client, Don Wells, who may have murdered his wife and stepson to get her money. Barbara hasn't changed and is still out to murder Ed. Will she get her just desserts?

This was another fast-paced novel from Woods and is a definite followup to the previous book. Anyone reading this series should start with the first book, SANTA FE RULES, and read them in order. I now need to read the last book, SANTA FE EDGE, to see how this series concludes. I think this book was a little cliched and used a lot of coincidences in telling the story but it did keep me reading. Overall, only a mild recommendation for this one.

the third Ed Eagle book and did not disappoint. Read all the Ed Eagle books in order and you will enjoy them all. Suspense, etc.
