Publisher's summary
Stuart Woods is in top form…and so is his perennially popular hero, Stone Barrington! When a hedge fund billionaire hires Stone Barrington to talk some sense into his wayward son, it seems like an easy enough job; no one knows the hidden sins and temptations of the ultra-wealthy better than Stone. But as Stone and his erstwhile protégé, Herbie Fisher, probe deeper into the case - and an old one comes back to haunt him - he realizes that even he may have underestimated just how far some people will go to cover up their crimes…and plan new ones.

Everyone is always telling Stone Barrington that he’s too smart to be a cop, but it’s pure luck that places him on the streets in the dead of night, just in time to witness the horrifying incident that turns his life inside out. Suddenly he is on the front page of every New York newspaper and his life is hopelessly entwined in the increasingly shocking life (and perhaps death) of Sasha Nijinsky, the country’s hottest and most beautiful television anchorwoman.

Story
In 1919, Delano, Georgia, appoints its first chief of police. Honest and hardworking, the new chief is puzzled when young men start to disappear. But his investigation is ended by the fatal blast from a shotgun. Delano's second chief-of-police is no hero, yet he is also disturbed by what he sees in the missing-persons bulletins. In 1969, when Delano's third chief takes over, the unsolved disappearances still haunt the police files.

Story
My life was ordinary until three years ago when I was thrown out of a downtown hotel window. My name is Robbie Brownlaw, and I am a homicide detective for the city of San Diego. I am 29 years old. I now have synesthesia, a neurological condition where your senses get mixed up. Sometimes when people talk to me, I see their voices as colored shapes provoked by the emotions of the speakers, not by the words themselves. I have what amounts to a primitive lie detector.

Predictable, no plot
What disappointed you about Unnatural Acts?
I agree with the other reviewers. I have read almost every Stuart Woods book, and enjoy the totally unrealistic but delightful stories. There was no plot to this story and Herbie went from being an idiot to the next Warren Buffett. This was a sloppy effort written to make a dollar.

Woods Disappoints!
Predictable, rushed, naïve … as if written by a child.
Great narration though, as always.

A New Low
What disappointed you about Unnatural Acts?
I've read or listened to every Stone Barrington book up until this one, but I might have to reconsider in the future. The story is slow, with no real action. Stone seems like a minor character. Too many scenes feel like the narrative is drawn from an instruction manual or a lecture.
Tony Roberts was the only redeeming point, doing his always great job with Stone, Dino and the others.
Would you ever listen to anything by Stuart Woods again?
On the fence.

Disappointed
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Better editing might have helped.
What could Stuart Woods have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Write more cohesively, and listen to the editor.
What about Tony Roberts’s performance did you like?
I like his "Dino" !!
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Extreme disappointment. I've read or listened to nearly all of the Stuart Woods books. The more recent ones have become more and more disconnected, and have suffered increasinly from bad editing.
