Product Description
Confess, Fletch
The flight from Rome had been pleasant enough, even if the business he was on wasn’t exactly. His Italian fianc?e’s father had been kidnapped and presumably murdered, and Fletch is on the trail of a stolen art collection that is her only patrimony. But when he arrives in his apartment to find a dead body, things start to get complicated.
Confess, Fletch
Inspector Flynn found him a little glib for someone who seemed to be the only likely suspect in a pretty clear case of homicide. He wasn’t exactly uncooperative, but it wasn’t like he was entirely forthcoming either. And Flynn wasn’t entirely convinced that the nineteenth-century Western artist Edgar Arthur Tharp really occupied most of Fletch’s thoughts.
Confess, Fletch
With the police on his tail and a few other things to do beside prove his own innocence, Fletch makes himself at home in Boston, renting a van, painting it black, and breaking into a private art gallery. That is when he’s not “entertaining” his future mother-in-law
and visiting with the good Inspector Flynn and his family.

Very Good Book

Well, I'm glad I read this book after giving up on "Carioca Fletch" (hint: stay away from that book). This is a very good book that grabs your attention and keeps it all the way through. The one thing I didn't like about the book (and it might just be a function of the genre and not a fault specific to the book) is that the "solution" to the mystery is not one that you really have any stake in finding. Essentially, you're hit with more information at the very end of the book which gives you a surprise ending. That aside, it's still a very good, fun book that's well worth reading.

I don't like it when reviewers reveal plot points, so I won't. Suffice to say, if you like other Fletch books, you will like Confess, Fletch. If you haven't read any Fletch boosk, you might want to start with Fletch, which was adapted into a funny movie starring Chevy Chase.

McDonald brings the heros of his two great detective series, Irwin M. Fletcher and Francis Xavier Flynn together for their only joint appearance on the printed page. The result is a quite satisfying story in which someone attempts to fram Fletch for murder. Fans of either series will love this fine entry into both of them.

Superb Comedy-Mystery

Irwin Maurice Fletcher (Fletch) arrives in Boston, and finds himself the prime suspect of a murder of a woman he has never met. Enter Inspector Francis Xavier Flynn, the ONLY inspector of the Boston Police Department. Against his every wish to bring Fletch in for arrest, he bumbles about in his own way until the real killer is caught. This book is extremely entertaining, with lots of one-liners by the dry Flynn to keep one laughing. Fletch is also at his best, mixing a murder investigation with an art-theft investigation of his own. Quite an enticement to read other Fletch books, as well as the three resulting books about Flynn (way too few in my opinion).

This is one of the fastest moving and most interesting of the Fletch novels. I have read it 10 times now at least and love it more each time!
