McNally - MY HERO!
Self styled impresario Matthew Hayes creates a maze on his lawn on Palm Beach's South Ocean. His wife is murdered in the center of the maze but how did she get there? Archy MMcNally solves the crime with his usual penache. Very good

I thought this was a good book - was not expecting the outcome, but isn't that what a good book is supposed to do? Can't wait to see what the next book in the series holds in store for us.
Though considered a somewhat dubious character, self-styled impresario and former human cannonball Matthew Hayes sets the South Florida smart set atwitter when he creates a grand garden hegde maze modeled after the one at Hampton Court. But the gala opening goes bust when Hayes's ladylove, Marlena Marvel, in the role of Venus, is discovered at the center of the maze, very dead indeed. The authorities are stumped, as Hayes's carnival background gives rise to a number of possible suspects-and the huge crowd at the unveiling included its fair share of questionable characters. It's up to Archy McNally to see through the scam and catch a killer.

One of Lawrence Sanders' favorite characters "McNally" is well written by Vincent Lardo since Sanders' death.
McNally remains true to form in another mystery novel.
