Summary: Pleased and disappointed
Comment: As a huge fan of the whole McNally series, I was saddened that Lawrence Sanders had passed away and disappointed to discover that another "ghost writer" had written this book based on Sanders' series. However, I think we as fans should be happy that at least we have some semblance of the McNally series continuing on after Sanders' death. To be honest, this new book was almost, but not quite, as entertaining as the previous McNally books. The new author has captured most of Archie's wit and personality and gives us a pretty entertaining read. It was distracting, however, to learn that Archie is suddenly engaged to Connie Garcia, yet there is no mention of a wedding or true commitment to her on Archie's part. I think the author threw the readers a real curve ball with that one, which was really quite inexcusable. But for the most part, I don't see how anyone can be anything other than happy that there will continue to be novels published about our favorite man about town, Archie McNally.

Summary: I thoroughly enjoyed this Upbeat, Fun Caper!!
Comment: Socialite Geoffrey WIlliams is murdered. His wife confesses to the crime after finding him in a compromising position with a "mystery woman". Archy McNally's 'Discreet Inquiries' investigates this murder as well as an unrelated blackmail scheme. "McNally's Dilemma" is a witty, fun caper with many twists and turns.In this book, Vincent Lardo has very effectively continued the series so brilliantly created and developed by Lawrence Sanders.... Archy McNally is as charming and eccentric as ever..and Archy's world of South Florida is still a delightful place to visit.I anxiously look forward to the next McNally caper!

Summary: Lardo succeeds - best McNally book yet!
Comment: Although I have fond memories of Lawrence Sanders' writing style, I don't understand the criticism for Vincent Lardo's continuation of this excellent series. This book is outstanding. The plot twists are intriguing and clever. I was mesmerized by the intertwined stories of Melva and Fairhurst, as Archie discovered more and more connections between the death of the dispicable Geoff Williams, and the blackmail of Fairhurst the III. The romantic dilemma for Archy was also an interesting side story. In my mind, this book had it all. Archy was in top form, jousting with the pater and his beloved Connie, dealing with the inept Binky on occasion (not too much, thankfully), and enjoying several medium rare steak tartares at the Pelican Club.
