Stone Barrington's son rolls right onto the pages of this fast-paced book.

Stone's son Peter has been discussed plenty in the past but never introduced until now. His son is very smart, clever and a genius. As a matter of fact, he seems a bit too perfect because everything Stone and Peter do throughout this book is nearly always the exact right thing to do.

There are some very interesting moments in this book that I will not speak of but the lack of emotion and odd actions some people take did not sit well with me. I only say this because I've come to really love all the characters in the Stone series and was surprised how some situations were handled.

If you are a Stone Barrington fan then this is clearly a must-read but do not get your hopes up too high.

If you have never listened to the series, this might actually be a good starting point because while there are characters and history you won't know, the introduction of Peter seems to be something of a new beginning for the series.

For Audible listeners, we still get to enjoy Tony Roberts still turning out great voices for all the characters.
