Two-Dollar Bill (Stone Barrington)

Two Dollar Bill delivers all the storytelling twists and whip-smart banter readers have come to love in Stuart Woods' thrillers.

The fun - and action - begins with what Stone believes will be a quiet dinner with his ex-partner, Dino, but they are interrupted by Billy Bob, a filthy rich Texan, who strolls in and parks himself at their table. He's in town "to make money," he says, unwrapping his wad of rare two-dollar bills, and in need of an attorney though he won't say why or when such representation will be necessary. Against his better judgment, Stone offers Billy Bob a safe haven but almost immediately begins to suspect that he's made several precipitous misjudgments. Before he knows it he is caught between a beautiful federal prosecutor and a love from his past, a con man with more aliases than hairs on his head, and a murder investigation that could ruin them all.
