First Fletch sequel picks up a year and a half later with the investigative reporter (now a freelance art critic) traveling to Boston in search of stolen paintings, finding murdered girl in his apartment.  Not as satisfying as Fletch, perhaps because it isn't as personal, but a clever and enjoyable mystery in its own right, leavened with the character's usual dry wit.  This time, however, Fletch isn't the smartest investigator in the book; that distinction belongs to Francis Xavier Flynn, the eccentric Boston cop in charge of the murder case, in which Fletch is the prime suspect.  (Flynn would go on to star in his own series of novels.)  A fast, pleasant, and amusing read.
