Description
Summary:Running low on cash and unlucky in love, Stone Barrington is not having a good week. After a night at Elaine's, his luck seems to improve when he's hired to do a little discreet detective work in the balmy paradise of Key West. But despite its clear blue skies, palm-lined streets, and gingerbread mansions, Key West proves to be more dangerous than Stone had anticipated. Drugs, fraud, and a mysterious death from the past may be inextricably linked to what had seemed an open-and-shut case; and a sudden turn of events will test the limits of the law, and Stone's willingness to go the extra mile for a client. With its surprising twists, daring trysts, and razor-sharp action, Loitering with Intent is another gripping read from a gifted-and witty-storyteller. From the Compact Disc edition.
