Palm Springs sleuth Archy McNally becomes caught up in a confusing web of paternity, blackmail, and murder when he is hired by best-selling author Sabrina Wright to find her missing husband, who vanished while searching for Sabrina's runaway daughter, but the case soon becomes complicated by the murder of his client. 150,000 first printing.

McNally's Chance

Geoffrey Williams is dead. It sounds like an open-and-shut case for McNally and Son's Department of Discreet Inquiries, and all the widow asks is that Archy shield her daughter from the press. Taking the case Archy soon realizes someone is lying, and the one person who knows the truth got away.

McNally's Dilemma

Family ties ensnare Lawrence Sanders’s Archy McNally, “a raffish combination of Dashiell Hammett’s Nick Charles and P. G. Wodehouse’s Bertie Wooster” (The New York Times Book Review). Bestselling author Sabrina Wright wants dapper detective Archy McNally to find her husband, who vanished while looking for her MIA daughter—it may seem like a simple case, but McNally knows it’s never that easy. Thirty-year-old Gillian Wright ran off to find her birth father, opening a Pandora’s box of scandalous revelations the tabloids can’t resist. It seems that Sabrina’s life was a bigger fiction than her bodice-ripping romances. Before her story is over, three powerful men with damning secrets could be outed . . . and murder will be the denouement. As McNally stumbles on one cover-up after another, he has one last chance to catch a killer who will stop at nothing to protect his name.

The murder of a young woman in East Hampton, Hollywood, places underwear model Paul Monroe at the head of a list of celebrity suspects, prompting filmmaker Michael Reo and Lieutenant Christopher Reo to investigate. Reprint.
