Books to Watch!
by Stuart Woods
Holly Barker, the small-town cop turned CIA agent, tracks a master of disguise - and a consummate killer.
'Woods's latest lacks the urgent plotting and bracing thrills needed to make it truly memorable.' - Publishers Weekly.
"A sitcom approach to international intrigue in which paper dolls from Woods's previous work keep slipping into new outfits as insubstantial as they are. " - Kirkus Reviews
"Iron Orchid reads easily and is mildly suspenseful, but it's often silly and cartoonish; the best thing about it is that Woods doesn't seem to take it very seriously." - Washington Post
