Another fun adventure following Teddy Fay and his multiple personas through a backdrop of a European movie promotion while fighting off an evil revenge plot. Great to see the series continue

Fabulously entertaining Teddy Fay/Billy Barnett story.
Intriguing and compelling from page 1 as Billy Barnett is on an international mission to find the person hunting down and killing agency operatives who were part of a special covert option called "Golden Hour" many years ago.
Teddy us in Europe with his movie production company, run by his friends, Peter and Ben, the sons of Stone Barrington and Dino Bacchetti. The person looking to kill the operatives is after Teddy, whom he discovered "might still be alive".
Pulls you in from the very beginning and does not let go. The usual Barrington story characters are all present and the typical Barrington touches of "over the top" wealth and glamor are as entertaining as ever.
A great read with non stop smiles.
Ready for the next one.

Teddy finds himself being enlisted by Lance Cabot yet again. It appears that someone has been killing off agents who were involved in an operation known as "Golden Hour". When Teddy gets wind of this, he steps up to help out. He utilizes his unending skills at deception to try and figure out what is going on. He gets help from several sources and soon begins to realize who is behind it and why. Lance did seem pretty ineffective in getting to the bottom of what was going on. He also knew he had a mole in the CIA but didn't seem to be making any headway on that either. Since Lance usually knows what is going on before most other people, this was surprising. Teddy also realizes that he is being used as bait and has to figure out a plan to use it to his advantage. I did like the story and found it to be very entertaining. It had the right note of intrigue and suspense to keep me reading. I look forward to more Teddy Fay novels.

Teddy Fay is ready to embark on the European press tour of Peter Barrington’s latest film Storm’s Eye, when he receives an unexpected visit from Lance Cabot, director of the CIA. Several CIA agents have been turning up dead. The commonality? They were all part of a mission Teddy was involved in: Golden Hour. Lance wants Teddy to use his trip as a cover to investigate who is behind these killings! Fantastic read!! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one! This book had great suspense, action packed dialogue, murder, mystery, a great who done it and some crazy twists and turns! The story was very interesting and kept me glued to my kindle! I highly recommend reading this book! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

Brett Battles remains true to Stuart Woods style and approach in this fast moving novel featuring Teddy Fay and his remarkable talents. If you enjoy stories that feature adventure and sleight of hand, as well as the movie industry and its' many moving parts, then you'll love this storyline, just as I did. If you're fascinated by the movie industry, foreign intrigue and a huge cast of interesting characters then, like me, you'll find this light fare captivating. Don't miss it!

I received an arc for free and gave my honest opinion voluntarily.

I am always a Stuart Woods fan and Golden Hour did not disappoint! As you can expect from a Stone Barrington novel, it was a great read!

This newest Teddy Fay novel really put the spark back into the Barrington/Fay series. Battles has placed Fay in international settings where he is the focus of an assassin plot. Teddy, his multiple disguises, is tasked by CIA chief Lance Cabot with stopping plans to kill members of a team on special assignment.

All the characters were likable, even the cameo by Stone Barrington, and held my interest. For fans of the Woods series, this will be enjoyed. Looking forward to more of these post-Woods novels.

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC.
