Summary: When you need to laugh out loud...
Review: If you've never read a McNally book before, try this set of three, because if you read one, you'll want to read more. Witty, charming, and as morally reprehensible as we'd all like to be, Archy McNally is the type of fascinating character you wish was real, just so you could take him out for drinks.

Summary: Hilarious Investigation by Binky Watrous on Archy's Behalf
Review: If you've read the Archy McNally books, you know he has a slightly daft friend who does bird calls, Binky Watrous. In this wonderful installment, McNally's Puzzle, Binky goes undercover at a bird store called Parrots Unlimited to find out who is threatening the store's owner, Hiram Gottschalk. Sancho Panza is a motivational consultant compared to Binky, and the complications are hilarious. You'll laugh until it hurts!

Before long, bodies are piling up in all directions. Who did it?

Here's a clue. The book's cover has a parrot on it. If you pay attention to the parrot, you'll get some important leads on who the guilty parties are.

Archy McNally is at his usual prissy best, more concerned about his wardrobe than the mystery. The ladies find him irresistible, and he feels obliged to help out. This gets him into trouble, as usual, with his main squeeze, Connie.

The actual plot is full despicable double-dealing. You'll be glad when the bad guys get it.

Great fun!

Summary: When you need to laugh out loud...
Review: The main character, Archy McNally, makes these books worth the read! The witty dialouge and inner thoughts of this sleuth keep me laughing. His constant references to literature and music as befits the situation provide me with several bursts of chuckling which always cause my husband to ask what I'm reading. I also like (and share) his penchant for food and drink, and delight in the descriptions of everything he consumes. I usually have guessed the plot correctly half-way through the book, but I can't help loving Archy!

Summary: Sanders best character in 3 delightful tales!
Review: What a pure delight it is to read three of Archy McNally's crime solving adventures in one book! I spent an entire weekend laughing, and thoroughly enjoying myself reading how the brilliant rogue Archy McNally bumbles into a case (and at times into the bed of an attractive female) and how he solves a case. Each of these stories is definite fun to read from the beginning to the last page. I really do miss Lawrence Sanders...Archy hasn't been the same without him.
