Fletch for President,
By
This review is from: Fletch and the Man Who (Paperback)
In this installment, Fletch goes to work for an American Presidential candidate after a murder in his campaign hotel. Along the way we get a lot of unique Fletch insights into the political process. This book would have made a much better sequel for the original Fletch movie than the idiotic "Fletch Saved." Overall, an excellent entry in the Fletch saga.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Best Fletch book,
By
This review is from: Fletch and the Man Who (Paperback)
If you are a fan of the Fletch book series (not necessarily the movie versions), this is the best Fletch book in that series. In it, a number of characters that appear in other books are written where you finally get an idea of their backgrounds, relationship to Fletch and true character. The books "Son of Fletch" and "Fletch Reflected" are best understood by reading this book first. Apart from character histories, this book provides insight into the political process of the campaign/primary trail. As with some of the better Fletch books, the twist of the ending will have you immediately re-reading the book to look for the subtleties and nuances missed the first time around when you were simply enjoying the storyline. I highly recommend this book!

Nothing special, but enjoyable nonetheless,
By Rac A. Powsky "hello" (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fletch and the Man Who (Paperback)
Like the overpraised but not terrible The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, this is a murder mystery second and a celebration of a newspaper man first. Fletch goes to work for a presidential campaign. The majority of the book talks about the scrutiny of the campaign trail, the little gestures that get blown out of proportion and the camraderie of the journalists. There are women dying throughout the book but they seem secondary to the main plot which consists of putting Fletch on the opposite side of investigative journalism as the guy who has to keep the floodgates closed.
The mystery feels like a cheat since Fletch doesn't work out the murderer's identity so much as stumble on it and there's a tired little bit at the end where Fletch tries to save someone from the murderer.
