After turning a film student's directorial debut into a hit movie, New York mobster and movie fanatic Vinnie Callabrese takes off for the bright lights of Hollywood, where he begins a new life as Michael Vincent, Producer. A natural born wheeler-dealer, he lands not only a major studio deal, but also a gorgeous actress girlfriend.

It isn't long before Michael Vincent is one of the most successful producers in town, given his knack for bringing in films under budget -- not too difficult when you're willing to lie, seduce, intimidate, and even kill to get what you want. But some of the people from his past have long memories and a far reach, and now it's Michael's turn to watch his back. Because even in the land of make-believe certain enemies -- and their bullets -- are very real.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good writing, good characters, always a good read.
Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2016

Stuart Woods is probably the most easy to read author I've found in the past few years, and I've been searching.
I have read all his books, except his latest Stone Barrington adventure, but I'll get it soon.
He does seem to have a limited number of "supporting" characters, so they show up from time to time. But it just makes it like one big, happy family... or NOT!
An annoying thing is his explicit details about checking a plane before take off - adds nothing to the plot and a waste of time. Why not just get on the damn plane and take off! And I don't care if he makes a few turns, how high he flies, etc. Boring after the first time!
I'm just glad Woods hasn't started using others to write books with his name on the cover, like so many other good writers who have done so - usually to my disappointment but to their enrichment (which I really don't object to).

Having read most all of Stuart Woods novels , over 90 to date and enjoying them all, I decided to start at the beginning and this one sets the tone for some of the best story telling in modern times.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Woods' best
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2013

I read this years ago and could still remember a lot of the story line, which told me how much I liked it. Taut, suspenseful, fast moving, it's a fun read. One of Stuart Woods' best offerings, imho, and I've read nearly every book of fiction he's produced. Recommend. Btw, this time I bought it for my Kindle. My hardback and pb books are stacking up; there's not enough space to house them all. Loving my Kindle Fire I got here on Amazon. Will be fun to go back and read this again down the road at some point.

4.0 out of 5 stars Different Stuff for Stuart Woods
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2020

If you want a change of pace from Woods other fair this is quite different.

The story focuses on a bad guy trying to go straight but it seems like two steps forward one step back.

The moral of the story is your past will eventually catch up with you.

Entertaining and well structured

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth your time

All of the Stuart Woods books have provided me with a great deal of entertainment. Each is different but weaves in many of the same characters as they age and go through their lives. Some of the lesser characters recur here and there, making each book more interesting. Read them in order to keep up with the movement. Thoroughly enjoyable with many plots about places and matters that I otherwise might not have been overly interested in until reading them in these books. I keep tied for more from Mr. Woods.

If you're a stone barrington fan you need to read this " one off " book-- leads to the Centurion movies studios and Leo & Amanda-- you get the backdrop of the whole studio thing from stone barrington novels-- the kicker is the the lead male--- vinnie Michael callabrese who reinvents himself to a winning but ruthless Michael Vincent -- ace studio low budget film producer. Excellent read for you Stuart woods fans-- if you miss stone barrington this is for you .

This book is really great. The first book of Stuart Woods that I read, and after that certainly not the last.
He has a gift for describe something that you want to read for you to "be there". I hope this book will be in movie one day...
