Stone City
Mitchell Smith. Signet Book, $5.99 (656pp) ISBN 978-0-451-16930-3
A middle-aged professor convicted of hit-and-run homicide lands in a violent state prison and is coerced by officials to participate in an undercover murder investigation there. ``A compelling narrative, right down to its shocking, yet somehow inevitable denouement,'' PW said. ``In the end, however, the story becomes almost incidental to the novel's haunting, intimidating setting.''
