Resumen del Editor

A woman private eye in a man's world, Molly Murphy is having a hard time succeeding as a New York shamus. That's why she agrees to go undercover for the NYPD to expose a pair of spiritualist sisters as con-artists even though the offer comes from police captain Daniel Sullivan. Sullivan had once won Molly's heart - until she discovered he already had a socialite fiancée and an upcoming wedding.

Now Molly's masquerading as a cousin from Ireland at the Hudson River mansion of Senator Barney Flynn. Flynn's invalid wife hopes the psychic sisters can contact her dead son, kidnapped and lost in a sensational crime. After an eerie séance, Molly isn't so sure the sisters are fakes, but she's certain the police bungled the kidnapping case. Soon Molly's questions are leading her toward danger, and her own sixth sense is warning her - murder lies ahead!

Wonderful Molly Adventure!

If you could sum up In Like Flynn in three words, what would they be?

This book takes you out of New York City and into the upper class lifestyle as Molly goes undercover once again! It is suspenseful and well worth the read. However, the audio does some strange things, at times another story seems to pop into this one you don't seem to miss any important information but it is very surprising. I believe it is just an editing error but it is too bad .I Hope you enjoy this suspenseful and at times chilling story.

What a wonderful series ...

I must listen continuously until it's finished. If I fall asleep I click back till I hear something that sounds familiar and then continue on. The reader does a great job with the accents. Try one and you'll be hooked but start it from book one so it makes sense. Eleanor

I love this series!!

It can be read by itself or as the continuation of a woman's life in the early 1920s, trying to make an independent career. Charming and though not historic per SE, it shows life during those difficult times. We really came a long way... And it wasn't easy! Light, pleasant reading.

great read

loved it, was at the edge of my seat the whole way through. love how the excitement continues and there is adventure around every corner.

May be my favorite yet

I’d been avoiding this book for a while because based on the summary I just couldn’t imagine it being even a small fraction as intriguing as the others in the series thus far. Chapter 1 started with Molly finding herself in the middle of nothing like any of the previous books and I started looking forward to seeing how that would pan out. Chapter 4 introduced the mystery I initially thought would be dull and disinteresting along with some new complications in her relationships. Chapter 5 surprised me with a mystery within a mystery that hooked me!

I am always wary about series with characters I enjoy becoming stale a few books in because there’s nothing left to write about. I’m so glad that so far this book/series has proven to be nothing of the sort. While there was one event in the ongoing plot that disappointed me, the array of new characters introduced, multiple mysteries, and more adventure with an adept, exciting, and plucky heroine may have made this my favorite installment yet!

The book is excellent but there are audio issues

Any additional comments?

The books is an excellent, well researched, historical cozy mystery but, unfortunately, whomever did the editing had some serious technical issues. There are multiple 2 - 3 second segments of what is obviously another book (narrated by a man) interspersed in this recording as well as the first 3 other books in the series (there may be more but I"m only on book 4 right now). It's extremely jarring even though it doesn't seem that any of the book is missing (i.e. the errant recording is cut in but doesn't seem to replace any content). The other review of the recording notes the same errors so it's not just a problem with the download I got.
I hope Audible (who did the recording) reedits the books and takes these glitches out.

Lots of characters

Very entertaining characters, fast paced, witty, keeps your attention. Would recommend following series in order of writing.

I love Molly Murphy expect for ….

…all the pondering!! It’s a bit much and can become rather tedious at times.

Aside from that one and only complaint, I’m having a great time working my way through the series; so glad I came across it! On to Book 5!

Another winner for Molly

This is a great series: written well and read fantastically well. Love all the characters - they are developed extremely well!

Following The Clues

I am not a good reader and have never been attached to a particular author. Nor, do I like crime novels.

With all that said, I thoroughly enjoy listening to one book after the other. The author the narrator in the story are easy to follow and really really keep me interested the entire time.

I will continue to listen to the other books, with great anticipation.

Thank you for these wonderful books. They keep me company on my commutes.
