Books like Fleeced by Carol Higgins Clark
In *Fleeced*, Regan Reilly, the storied private investigator featured in Carol Higgins Clark’s best‑sellers, flies to New York for a crime‑conference hosted by her author mother. The visit turns deadly when Thomas Pilsner, the energetic president of the Settlers’ Club on Gramercy Park, begs Regan’s help after two club members are found dead and a rumored diamond donation vanishes.
Regan must sift through a cast of eccentric club members—Lydia Sevatura, a self‑styled "Princess of Love" who runs a dating service, and her butler Maldwin Feckles, newly started on butler education—to uncover who profited from the tragedy and to protect Thomas from suspicion and job loss. The novel blends sharp humor, urban intrigue, and Regan’s keen sleuthing in a modern mystery that showcases Clark’s talent for witty, engaging prose.
