Fleeced: A Regan Reilly Mystery - Carol Higgins Clark (CD)
Title: Against All Enemies: Inside America's War on Terror Title: Fleeced: A Regan Reilly Mystery Author: Carol Higgins Clark Genre: Literatuare and Fiction, Mystery And Suspense Format: CDs (Unabridged) Synopsis: When Regan Reilly arrives in New York City to attend a conference organized by her celebrity-author mother, the last thing she expects is to be plunged into a headline-making case. But that's just what happens when an old friend calls on Regan to investigate the murder of two fellow Settler's Club members, whose deaths have left the club in a financial bind and Regan's friend in an awful fix. Now, unless Regan can clear his name, her old friend just might find himself behind bars, if a ruthless killer doesn't get to him first. Review: Booklist (October 1, 2001) In typical fashion, Clark wields yet another lighthearted, easy-to-read whodunit revolving around Regan Reilly, the smart, sassy, thirtysomething sleuth-about-Manhattan. Thomas Pilsner, president of the fading Settler's Club of Gramercy Park, enlists the help of his friend Regan to figure out who could be behind the sudden deaths of two men who had planned to endow the club with millions. All signs point to Pilsner himself, but Regan is certain that this consummate gentleman, a throwback to the 1890s, did not participate in the foul play. She's not so convinced, though, that others who live in the venerable building are beyond suspicion. There's the eccentric Miss Lydia, who runs a dating service out of her flat, or her equally eccentric butler, Maldwin, whose butler school is just getting off the ground. Then there are the guests and students of Lydia and Maldwin, many of whom are looking for an easy score. With the help of her cop boyfriend and mystery-writer mother (art mirrors life here; Clark is the daughter of Mary Higgins Clark), Regan saves the day but not before immersing herself completely in the wacky lives of her various suspects. This fun, harmless romp may not be quite as slick as the work of the author's mother, but it is definitely designed to appeal to the same crowd. --Mary Frances Wilkens
