New York Dead / Dead in the Water
Springer avatar reviewed on + 26 more book reviews


Two of Stuart Woods stories. In New York Dead, NYPD Detective Stone Barrington's investigation into a beautiful TV anchorwoman's 12 story plunge from the terrace of her Manhattan apartment hits a shocking snag when her body mysteriously vanishes from the ambulance that's racing her to the hospital.

Dead in the Water: Stone B. wants only a winter getaway from the chill of N.Y. But what the ex-cop-turned-lawyer finds instead in the Caribbean paradise of St. Mark is a dangerous puzzle, an imperiled femme fatale, and a strange disappearance at sea.
