an afternoon promenade of a book
10 Feb 2005
Format:Paperback
McNally, the title character, is quite a charmer. His pretentions and self-mocking attitudes make him likeable. The plot of this book isn't revolutionary and the end is dissapointinlgly predictable, however, it is still an enjoyable read. The ending doesn't wrap up in a completely neat way, which I wouldn't object to, but the rest of the book (including the last page where McNally says he wanted iot to be more cut and dried) seems to lead to a more solid resolution. All in all, I'd still reccomend this as a light pleasure read, great for beaches and subway rides.

Good - but not as great as most McNally books
29 Jun 2003
Format:Paperback
This book had most of the delicious features of the other McNally books, but was missing something. I guess the killer's motivation was a little weak. Also, some of the juicy details were never wrapped up (e.g., why the nude photo collection?). McNally's case revolves around an eccentric family of nuts. He feels pity for the sane little 8 year old girl, who suffers with bitter parents. The killer was fairly easy to guess, and the show down near the end was dramatic.

Not great, but still very good
23 Mar 1998
Format:Paperback
This is the fourth book in the McNally series that I have read and Sanders has crafted a solid mystery. I enjoyed the first two books in the series better (McNALLY'S SECRET and McNALLY's LUCK) because CAPER was fairly predictable as other reviewers have noted. But if you enjoy the series you'll enjoy this book. Nothing outstanding but still solid.
