Fiction. Mystery. HTML:

Fletch, investigative reporter extraordinaire, can't be bothered with deadlines or expense-account budgets when it comes to getting his story. Working undercover at the beach to dig up a drug-trafficking scheme for his next blockbuster piece, Fletch is invited into a much deeper narrative. Alan Stanwyk, CEO of Collins Aviation and all-around family man, mistakes the reporter for a strung-out vagabond and asks him for a favor: kill him and escape to Brazil with $50,000. Intrigued, Fletch can't help but dig into this suspicious deal he's being offered. Dodging the shady beach police as his case begins to break open, and with his temperamental editor Clara pushing for his article, he soon discovers that Stanwyk has a lot to hide and this plan is anything but what it seems. Winner of the Edgar Award for Best First Novel. A Booklist Pick of Upcoming Titles on Audio.

Just what a thriller should be: brisk, compelling, economical and satisfying.

So I saw this book in the library and decided to reread it. I haven’t read it in over 30 years but it was one of the books that hooked me on mysteries as a young man.

Let me start by saying that the writing is still top notch. I found myself laughing frequently. I can see why the young me liked this book. It feels a little dated and Fletch is a bigger asshole than I remember but it was a fun trip down memory lane.

I originally rated this book a 5 based on memory when I added it to Goodreads. It was an important book from my childhood. If I was rating it now it would be about 3.5 to 4. ( )

What a hoot! This was so much fun! A real breath of fresh air! I read this years ago (1980 something). Of course I didn't remember it, just the ending. I was delighted to share it with my husband. We had watched the movie Confess, Fletch and I realized he didn't know the character Fletch as I did. He also really enjoyed this audiobook. We look forward to reading the rest of the series. So much fun to find something new among my memories. I never did read the whole series, so the next one will be a surprise for both of us. Good narrator! ( )

I'm glad I read it. This felt very similar to the film, though there were some changes. ( )

"What's your name?"
"Fletch."
"What's your full name?"
"Irwin. Irwin Fletcher. People call me Fletch."
"Irwin Fletcher, I have a proposition to make to you. I will give you a thousand dollars for just listening to it. If you decide to reject the proposition, you take the thousand dollars, go away, and never tell anyone we talked. Fair enough?"
"Is it criminal? I mean, what you want me to do?"
"Of course."
"Fair enough. For a thousand bucks I can listen. What do you want me to do?"
"I want you to murder me."...
Fletch said, "Sure."
