Acerca de esta escucha
After Special Agent Holly Barker lets international terrorist Teddy Fay slip through her fingers for a second time, the CIA thinks she might want a long vacation, at least until Teddy is captured and the bad publicity has blown over. So Holly returns to her hometown of Orchid Beach, Florida, where she had been police chief for many years. But a very unpleasant surprise awaits her.
Many years earlier, Holly and another female army officer had brought charges against their commanding officer for sexual harassment, attempted rape, and rape. Holly had managed to fight him off, but the other woman, a young lieutenant, had not. The officer in question was acquitted of all charges, and has also left the army - for a job as Orchid Beach's new police chief.
Will Holly return to the CIA? Or will she challenge her old nemesis for control of the Orchid Beach Police Department?

Historia
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.

Historia
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.

Rick Barron, a sharp, capable detective on the Beverly Hills force, finds himself demoted after a run-in with a superior officer, but he soon lands a job other cops only dream about: the security detail for Centurion Pictures, one of the hottest studios in the midst of Hollywood's golden age of the late 1930s. As the protector of the studio's interests, Barron looks after the elite of filmdom's stars - among them Clete Barrow, a British leading man with a penchant for parties, and Glenna Gleason, a peach of a talent on the verge of stardom.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Woods glibly lets the reader stay well ahead of the legal posse tracking the killer while still keeping a card or two up his sleeve. Playful dialogue and romantic sexual escapades lighten the atmosphere.” (Publishers Weekly)

A Nice diversion
A nice trifle. This particular presenter has the gift of never making anything seem that threatening. It's a nice little story, but it never gave me a moment of angst, because the performance let me know everything would be fine. Sex, murder and dis-honesty, it will all work out. Not bad, but definitely from the light hors d'oeuvres section of the menu.

Left me hanging, that is a good thing.
I fist encountered Holly with the Stone Barrington books. When I saw the Orchid books I would not resist. Will be waiting for the next Teddy encounter. Will she ever catch the SOB? :)

Hothouse did not seem like a Stuart woods book
Maybe it was the narrator….not being Tony Robert’s …..as well as female but it seemed to me like it was another author. It was interesting but not as much as most Stone Barrington stories.

The narrator reduced full enjoyment of this book
The story was entertaining but like a good movie, an audio book relies on the talents of the narrator to bring depth to the story and the characters. This narrator was adept at using dialects for many of the local characters but her portrayal of the lead character was not as entertaining. There was an attempt to portray a type of sarcastic repartee between the lead and the central characters such as Robert B Parker ably portrays in his books about Spenser but it fell flat when attempted by the narrator. I had the strong impression that reading the book would have been far more enjoyable.

Disappointing
What was most disappointing about Stuart Woods’s story?
The action is unbelievable, and I know more interesting characters in real life. The plot has holes, but it is still more entertaining than T.V.

Barely Bearable
The reader of this novel is by far the worst I have encountered. I found myself wanting to abandon the book because of her. Fake accent, very slow and without emotion.

Nice ending.
Enjoyed it thoroughly. Lighter reading but interesting characters and story. Went quickly with great narrative. Pretty good mystery with a couple sudden changes. Leaves some loose ends for future novels.
