Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Woods, popular author of 16 novels, easily translates to audiocassette since his writing has a straightforward, easy-to-understand quality. Dead in the Water, for example, has been given at least three audiocassette interpretations. Richard Ferrone, who reads for Recorded Books, has a certain dramatic flair but does not alter or vary his accent with the different speakers; since the book is so heavily into dialog, this is a negative factor. Jonathan Marosz, who reads for Books on TapeR, has a more journalistic style; however, he succeeds nicely in creating different voice patterns, accents, and cadences for his speakers. The mystery involves ex-cop, Manhattan attorney Stone Barrington, who has taken a January vacation in the Caribbean. There, he meets blonde, beautiful Allison Manning, who must explain how her husband has disappeared. There are, of course, intriguing twists and turns that keep the listener guessing as to what really happened to Paul Manning, and Stone soon becomes enmeshed in helping Allison prove that she did not murder her husband. The sound quality of both recorded presentations is quite clear. Both are well recommended for popular collections.?Jacqueline Seewald, Red Bank Regional H.S., Little Silver, NJ

Richard Ferrone takes on the persona of Stone Barrington, a Manhattan attorney. His superb acting skills and outstanding narrating abilities combine to present an ingenious, suspenseful plot, with exciting twists and turns. Did the beautiful Allison Manning, in whom Stone has more than a professional interest, murder her famous writer-husband? Why does Sir Winston, St. Marks Island's minister of justice, want to hang Allison? Ferrone's slightly accented but clear and concise voice provides warmth to Woods's appealing story, which is part romance and
