Shades of "Chief", his first and best. I enjoyed this one---there were several possibilities and Woods played them all. His standalone books are better plotted than the Stone Barrington series.

I enjoyed this Teddy Fay novel more than some of the recent Woods books. Perhaps it is because a different author has joined due to Woods's death.
In this one, Fay is acting in a movie along with Ben's wife Tessa. A fan is obsessed with Tessa and wants to take her for his own. Meanwhile, a woman is kidnapped and held for ransom. She and her husband (Rebecca and Carl Novak) were to finance a Centurion Studios picture. But, someone was out for revenge against Novak for a perceived slight.
This is a very quick read, with plenty of humor and also some high stakes sleuthing. Enjoyable.

$1 Paperback. Good or better condition. I do not write the description or most of the other information. If photo is attached, it is a stock photo. Not all books are marked if a 1st edition. Most paperback books will not be updated if a 1st edition. No books are library editions, except in rare, noted condition.
