Synopsis

Stone Barrington gets a taste of New York City's devious upper crust in this "sleek and engaging"* mystery in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Hired to prove infidelity in an heiress's marriage, Stone Barrington goes undercover. But the work turns dirty--and catastrophic--when the errant husband is found dead and the other woman disappears without a trace. Now, Stone must clear his own good name and find a killer hiding among the glitterati of New York's high society.
