In this sixth novel in the Regan Reilly Mysteries, P.I. Regan Reilly must find actress Whitney Wheldon before it's too late. Why? Because she will inherit two million dollars just by going to Lucretia Standish's wedding, and so will her mother Lilac, and her two uncles Earl and Leon.
But what Whitney doesn't know is that Lucretia's husband-to-be, Edward Fields, knows Whitney, and he will do anything he can to marry 93-year-old Lucretia, including hiring a con man, Rex aka Don, to kidnap Whitney.
Meanwhile, Jack "no relation" Reilly, Regan's new beau, is investigating con artists in New York, and the road will lead him to... Altered States, Whitney's winery.
This novel was more entertaining than others, and certainly more exciting. It has more parallel stories than the earlier Regan Reilly Mysteries, the characters are better developed and there is more action.
Although somewhat predictable, it is nonetheless a very enjoyable book!
