I APPARENTLY DID NOT READ THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS BOOK AS WELL AS I SHOULD
HAVE. SHAME ON ME. I HAVE ALL OF THE MCNALLY BOOKS AND WHEN I SAW THIS
TITLE THOUGHT...."UMMM, I DON'T HAVE THAT ONE ON MY LIST??" WHEN I
RECEIVED IT, I WAS SURPRISED THAT IT WAS A COMPILATION OF THREE BOOKS I
HAD ALREADY RECEIVED/READ AND WAS DISAPPOINTED I HAD NOT READ THE REVIEW
BETTER. I AM DONATING IT TO MY LIBRARY.

This is a great collection of the first three McNally investigations in one nice, inexpensive edition. Please disregard the one star review below. They are just bitter because they didn't do the proper investigation into this book before purchasing it. Archy McNally would be ashamed. Buy this. Read this. Enjoy this. I known you will.

I like the McNally books because they are murder mysteries, but they are lightly written. I don't need or like a lot of dark morbidity, so McNally is just the thing--he is determinedly optimistic. (And I have a bad habit of buying his books when I see them, only to discover I already own one--or two--copies of the same title. I must get better organized!)

I too bought this book assuming it was a previously unreleased McNally story. I already have all of the McNally books. In fact, looking at the website now, the only mention that it is a collection is in the customer reviews. Having read all of the other books and enjoyed them, I didn't need to read the reviews. I'm feeling a bit ripped off!
