About this audiobook
From the Bestselling Author of McNally's Secret
It's hazy, hot and humid in the Palm Beach world of the rich and famous, but charming, sophisticated - and street smart - investigator Archibald McNally keeps his cool, solving discreet cases for a select group of posh clients.
Things start to sizzle when Archy is hired to locate Peaches, a stolen cat owned by a wealthy real estate developer. The case, which Archy expects to be a snap, is suddenly ignited by the tycoon's sultry wife and her stunning sister, a side-trip into the occult, and a series of unlucky events that lead to murder.
Bestselling author Lawrence Sanders introduced Archibald, the intrepid investigator, in McNally's Secret. Now he brings him back to debonair, oh-so-fashionable life in this fast-paced, witty tale of murder.

Reviews for McNally's Luck
4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The first seven books in the McNally series are charming piffle, just great for totally escapist reading. I discovered them when I was going through a difficult (and time consuming) time, when all I wanted out of a book was diversion and distraction, and McNally provided it. This is Archie McNally's second starring role, and he remains just as he was in book one -- the son of a Palm Beach lawyer, but not himself a lawyer, having been kicked out of Yale Law for streaking. Instead of lawyering, he works with his father as the "Discreet Enquiries" department of the family law firm. The enquiries involve the socially and financially well fixed population of Palm Beach, where Archie is social butterfly. He is definitely an eccentric, living (quite happily) with Mum and Dad, and untroubled by his lack of worldly sucess. He loves food, he loves women, and he loves dressing to the nines. Peter Pan in PB, perhaps, but charming. This second novel involves a catnapped Persian cat, which is shortly followed by the murder of a Palm Beach hostess. Archie detects a connection, and the plot proceeds from there.
