Description
Soon to be a major motion picture starring Jon Hamm as Fletch!
Offering up brisk, tightly written plots and a stellar cast of characters both new and old, Confess, Fletch finds our incorrigible protagonist back in deep waters once again.
Fletch, now newly engaged and happily living out his days in Italy, finds himself embroiled in yet another scandal. His soon-to-be father-in-law has been kidnapped and is now presumed dead, and the priceless collection of rare art that belongs to his fiancée’s family has been stolen.
Ever the investigative reporter, he receives a tip about the missing art that lands him in Boston, where he walks right into a murder scene in his apartment. What clearly looks like a setup to the unfazed Fletch looks quite different to the detective assigned to the case, Mr. Francis Xavier Flynn. But even if the case is seemingly cut-and-dry, Flynn is reluctant to arrest the only suspect that stands before him.
Now under the detective’s watchful eye, Fletch must try to clear his name and search for the missing paintings, all while his gorgeous future mother-in-law works to persuade him for help the best way she knows how—seduction.

Jean T, Reviewer
This is one of the wittiest book of a mystery I remember reading. A fast read but so entertaining while keeping you on your toes when Fletch and Flynn face each other. It is as twisting as the streets of Boston, the setting of this book. Thanks to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for an ARC of this book; I voluntarily leave my review.
Peter A, Reviewer
Confess Fletch, the second novel to be released in the series is out with a tie in cover for the latest film. Those who enjoy the latter will, no doubt, also find satisfaction in this follow up to the first book “Fletch.”
The protagonist whose name is in the title no longer works for a Chicago newspaper and instead is living a higher life, having come into some money.
While supposedly working on a biography of an artist Fletch arrives into Boston from Italy, only to find a body in his rented apartment. After calling the police, the wonderfully enjoyable Inspector Flynn, another seminal character by author Gregory McDonald, and not featured in the film version, arrived on scene and throughout the novel encourages Fletch to confess.
While investigating the mystery at hand, the reader learns a host of other mysteries connected to Fletch through his many relationships. This book, like the best ones in the series keeps the reader guessing, laughing, and engaged.
It matters not if you have read any other books in the series, and Confess, Fletch is a delightful and satisfying read.
