Short Straw

I LOVED the last Ed Eagle novel, Santa Fe Rules, but this one was a bit of a disappointment--which was hard to take because I'm a long-time Stuart Woods fan. First of all, there seemed to be no particular motive for Barbara to suddenly make off with all of Eagle's assets. She just took it? Why?? And second, the chase itself seemed more than a little plodding. But the ending wrapped it all up tight, and maybe Woods will do better next time.

I adore Stuart Woods and this title does not disappoint. Listen for references of course, Delano Georgia and another favorite Centurion Studios and Rick Barron. I Highly Recommend
