Praise for Smooth Operator
“Fast-moving, full of action, sexy and now with a very bright,
devious new hero in Teddy Fay...It is like eating forbidden fruit,
sugary cotton candy or forbidden chocolate brownies with nuts. You
know it isn’t good for you, but you can’t put it down! Just go
ahead and read it.”—Lincoln Journal-Star
“Fans are sure to welcome this action-packed start to a separate
series within the larger Stone Barrington story arc.”—Publishers
Weekly

will read anything with his name on it, and Hall brings his own
considerable following to the party. Entertaining, suspenseful
reading for those who like smart-ass protagonists who are shrewder,
tougher, and funnier than the bad guys they
encounter.”—Booklist
