Sort of like listening to a tape recorder of a conversation - you get the facts of what was said without all the other human senses that play into an experience. (  ) taylorsteve | Jul 26, 2009 |  I think that Stuart Wood's novels attract me because of the spare tightness of his writing style and the well-paced action. However, I felt a little dirty after I finished this book because of the appalling cold-bloodedness of almost every character in the story, "good guys" as well as "bad guys." There really is no redeeming quality of this story -- no shared laughs or uplifting story. Although the bad guys get their just due in the end, it was not by any noble means. Even the "good guys" were motivated by pure self-interest / revenge and committed their own murders. I would not recommend this book. (  ) hannahbond | Jan 3, 2009 | Absurd plot -- legal matters that normally take weeks or months are handled in hours or days. Bodies pile up. Serious editing error near the end. Yuk. (  ) seasidereader | Sep 5, 2008 | can only listen on tape- can't imagine reading one of his books (  ) ReadingKnitter01 | Aug 5, 2008 | This is the second book in the Ed Eagle series by Stuart Woods. I had read the first a few years ago, so it took some time for characters to be re-introduced to me. However, I was hooked by the first 30 pages - a trial, jail escape, stolen money, new identity, etc. I didn't want to put the book down so don't start this book unless you have the time to finish it right then. It had been a while since I had read the first book with Ed Eagle but the author did a great job with his background throughout the book. Don't start this book if you can't read it in one sitting. It's fast reading. Enjoy! (  ) kingsportlibrary | Jun 23, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review
