The best of Rachel Benjamin?

While I have always remained partial to Sturman's first book in the Rachel Benjamin series, 'THE PACT' I have to regretfully admit that I now have a new favorite in this engaging series...'THE HUNT'! Not only was this installment filled with unexpected twists and turns (not only in the whodunit but also in Rachel and Peter's relationship) but it was also laugh out loud funny! In the 'THE HUNT' Rachel finds herself, not so successfully in her opinion, trying to fit in with her super normal in-laws-to-be when her best friend Hillary seems to be abducted by a billionaire who does not want some sketchy information leaked just days before his company is supposed to go public. And journalist Hillary has collected all sorts of nasty tid-bits about this billionaire and his company and is all set to write her article when she disappears. Now it is up to Rachel and Company to find Hillary, thwart the company's endeavors to go public all the while trying to impress her soon to be in-laws! Stir all of these ingredients together and you have one hilarious concoction! If you have enjoyed the rest of the series get ready to enjoy the best!

I'm happy to say that the 4th Rachel Benjamin mystery lived up to my expectations. Rachel is quirky, real, & a good laugh as well. This time, the mystery moved from New York City to San Fransisco, & the change of scenery was welcome. Rachel's college friends (from "The Pact") were also a big part of the story, which I enjoyed. The mystery itself was a sort of scavenger hunt that made for an interesting & fast paced read. I hope that Ms. Sturman continues this series because I am looking forward to the continued growth of Rachel & Peter's relationship.

engaging amateur sleuth

Accompanied by her friends (Hilary, Luisa and Ben), Rachel and her fiancé Peter visit his parents on the West Coast for the weekend. Rachel plans to behave with decorum so as to not make any waves. However, during the engagement party thrown by his parents, Hilary dumps Ben before leaving the gala. Not long afterward Rachel receives an enigmatic message from Hilary asking for her help. As Rachel and her posse try to find Hilary, they learn she was seen frolicking with Igor "Iggie" Behrenz. As one clue leads to another, Rachel realizes someone is setting them up, but is not sure why even as she begins to have commitment doubts again. This is an engaging amateur sleuth (though Ben is a professional) that readers will enjoy especially the chick lit asides from the heroine as she has increasing doubts about Peter even as she tries to behave in front of his parents. The story line is fast-paced as the posse work in humorous ways to win THE HUNT for Hilary. Readers will enjoy this fine tale and seek Rachel's backlist of misadventures (see THE PACT, THE JINX and THE KEY). Harriet Klausner

Another Great One!!

I got this book yesterday, and I loved it. Watching Rachel, her fiance, and their friends try to peice together clues to find someone was great. Jennifer Sturman hasn't lost her touch where writing these characters or her stories are concerned. I waited for a year for this book to come out, and it was worth the wait. I wish it had been longer though. I noticed out of all of Ms. Sturman's books, this was the shortest and the thinnest.

Terrific read!! The bar is raised yet again!

I don't know how she does it, but Ms. Sturman has given us another delightful read! This time, Rachel finds herself in San Francisco juggling niceties with her soon-to-be (probably) in-laws with trying to track down her somewhat headstrong friend Hilary who has disappeared and seems to be mixed up with a sketchy internet mogul! So witty (I actually laughed out loud 4 times) and suspenseful, the book (unfortunately) flies by. How soon til the next one, Ms. Sturman?
