[The Money Shot] by Stuart Woods & Parnell Hall
Teddy Fay series Book #2
4.5★
Ever a man of mystery and intrigue, Teddy Fay has donned a new disguise--that of Mark Weldon, a stuntman and actor starring in Centurion Studios' newest film. When the picture's leading lady begins receiving blackmail threats, Teddy is in the perfect position to investigate, and it soon becomes clear that the villains have more in their sights than just money. Money they've got. What they need is prestige, the cache of a respected studio to lend authority and legitimacy to their artistic endeavors . . . and a little bit of vengeance in the bargain. From the seedy hidden corners of Los Angeles to the glamorous Hollywood Hills, it will take every ounce of Teddy's cunning to save an actress's career, protect the studio, and finish filming Centurion's next big hit.From the first time I met the character of Teddy Fay in another of Stuart Wood's series, I thought what an interesting character...he needs his own series. Mr. Woods must have heard my thoughts because soon after that the first book in the Teddy Fay series was released. He's a "good guy/bad guy" that is so incredibly versatile and clever in his approach to crime fighting. You will love him for his ingenuity if nothing else. These books are fast reads with intriguing plots but the reader never feels cheated. Looking forward to many more adventures with Teddy.
