L.A. Dead

Summary: Hopefully the next is better....
Review: I am a big fan of Stuart Wood's Stone Barrington series, however, I don't think that this was one of his best. The reason for the three stars was because Arrington's character was so flat. Woods had done such a great job of making Arrington a fun, curious, and appealing character in his previous novels. But in this one, she is just boring and stupid. I don't know what happened! The plot is marginal and I was just glad that the book was over. The book should be read if you are reading through the series, but I do not recommend it as a stand alone read. Try "Swimming to Catalina" or "L.A. Times" if you are looking for something really good from Woods.
