Stuart Woods writes uncomplicated tales about tough guys, willing gals, and bad hombres.  In Barely Legal, the tough guy is Herbie Fischer, Stone Barrington’s protégé, who gets the call to defend a college kid accused of selling drugs.  The bad guys are a gang of developers trying to pressure a city councilman, who just happens to be the juvie dealer’s dad.  This is a “fast-moving tale with a light touch” (Booklist).
