3.0 out of 5 stars Mildly curious, 18 Feb 2006
By Inspector Gadget "Go Go Gadget Reviews" (On the trail of Doctor Claw) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fletch, Too (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) (Paperback)
On the day of his wedding to Barbara, Fletch receives a letter from his long lost dad who claims to be in Africa and needs Fletch's assisance for some reason. Intead of going on their honeymoon to Colorado, Fletch and Barbara fly over to Kenya to meet with the enigmatic Walter Fletcher, but there's no sign of him. Only his pal Peter Carr.

While freshening up in the airport toilet, Fletch half witnesses a murder in which a man is stabbed to death. He tries to put this to the back of his mind as along with Carr and Barbara he flies around the desert and jungles looking at animals and trying to discover lost cities.

That's really about it, I'm afraid. Gregory MacDonald coughed-up a rather tepid story this time around. There no real sense of mystery or crime solving and there's far too much detail put into Fletch and Barbara's sightseeing and dinner/menu choices. It's more like an episode of Murder She Wrote than a real, solid whodunnit.

And what is the deal with the character of Juma and all that 'penis' stuff near the end? Why is he having group sex for no apparent reason? I so totally do not get that! I'll admit that this book was heading for a 2-star review but a surprise twist right at the very end turned the whole thing around and genuinely shocked me. But it's a lot of bore to trudge through to get to it. Methinks that MacDonald probably visited Kenya shortly before writing and was so impressed he felt like sending Fletch there to do exactly what he did; sit around in restaurants and going sight-seeing.

Some stronger inspiration could have helped the story, but it's still a good read for Fletch fans.
