Fletch's Moxie

The Fletch Mysteries, Book 5

By: Gregory Mcdonald

Narrated by: Dan John Miller

In Fletch's Moxie, the prolific Gregory Mcdonald tests his incomparable investigative journalist once again with a caper that is as perfectly plotted as Fletch is brilliant.

It seems just about everyone in Hollywood had a reason to want Steve Peterman dead. But how someone managed to put a knife in his back on a live broadcast without being seen is anyone's guess. Unfortunately for Fletch, his girlfriend, Moxie Mooney, a huge star at the box office, is also the number-one suspect.

With the police asking way too many questions, Fletch whisks Moxie and her drunken father off to Key West for a little privacy. But before he can even check out the beach, the rest of the suspects decide to check in. Now, in a house full of Hollywood's elite, Fletch is increasingly amazed at how ruthless the movie business can be.

Always a great read

Always entertaining and fun to listen to. McDonald always has a somewhat serious ending after a sometimes silly narrative. it is kind of touching as it seems like underneath the bravado and arrogance there is a heart of gold that reveals his soft spot, particularly for the underdog.

A murder in southwest Florida

Fun to have this fletch book set in Fort Myers. The trip to Key West made out even more fun. The conclusion was a little surprising but well developed. MacDonald seems to enjoy surprising flip flops by his characters. Moxie and her father play more central roles and are well developed.

better than average Fletch

more interesting story line than most of the other ones. it was as good as the first of the series.

The best one since the first one

An interesting story, colorful characters, and a cool setting make this the best Fletch story since the original “Fletch”.

Fun listen.

Enjoyable story with Fletcher and movie people. Good for relaxing afternoon on a cold day in autumn.
