Stone Barrington is a retired NYPD detective second-grade. He gained some notoriety by solving a case in which a young girl named Sasha Nijinsky disappeared.
He left the police force after fourteen years. The split was mutually agreed-upon. Barrington simply did not fit the mold of an NYPD officer. He was always the odd man out and everyone, including Stone Barrington, knew it. He currently works with Bill Eggers as attorney of counsel and private investigator for the law firm of Woodman and Weld. The cases Stone handles center around divorce, adultery, industrial espionage and various client-related criminal matters.
