Synopsis

If you run into trouble in Santa Fe, Ed Eagle is the man to see.

Ed Eagle, the six-feet-six, take-no-prisoners Santa Fe attorney, has recovered from his encounters with Mexican organized crime and-more treacherously-his ex-wife, Barbara. Now a mysterious new client has come his way, one who may shed light into some dark corners of Ed's past...and put him in danger once more.

About Stuart Woods

The American novelist hailing from Georgia, Stuart Woods, had a long and lustrous career in competition sailing. The interest, maybe obsession, with sailing began after he had spent time in London, then Ireland to write a novel about an old family story which he had heard as a child. He began putting together a crew for sailing competition shortly after he moved to Ireland.

It was in conjunction with a certain race, the MORCRA Azores Race and the OSTAR, Woods met with publishers to trade writing a book about his sailing experiences in return for sponsorship of the races. Golden Harp was launched in 1975, followed by Golden, Golden Apple, Golden Shamrock, Golden Delicious, and Harp.

Wood's novel, Blue Water. Green Skipper was published in 1977. His next book took a different turn and was based on his extensive travels around England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. It was entitled, A Romantic's Guide to the Country Inns of Britain and Ireland. He then followed those two non-fiction books with several series of novels featuring recurring casts of characters and also with characters and their love interests, and frequent use of the New York restaurant Elaine's as a meeting place. Woods has published a memoir, a travel book, and forty-four novels in a thirty-seven year career.

Goodreads review by Jack

4 Stars. Dangling is the word. The novel's threads weren't difficult to follow but, in the end, each seemed somewhat truncated as if the last chapter was missing, you get the idea. It was published in 2010 and too much time has passed; a follow-up is unlikely! The relationship between the threads is......more

Goodreads review by Randy

Woods has been a guilty pleasure for a few years. I don't buy them anymore, but let them pile up for a year or so, then check them out of the library. I go five this time(this is the fourth I've read) and they will be my last. This one is a mess. Three plot threads run through it. The main one concern......more
