Resumen del Editor

Helena Pearson. Undeniably beautiful... indisputably rich... incredibly wanton... the perfect client for Travis McGee. He did a big favor for her husband and then for the lady herself. Now Helena is dead, and McGee finds out that she had one last request to make of him: find out why her beautiful daughter, Maurie, keeps trying to kill herself. So, half-convinced that Maurie needs a good doctor and not a devil-may-care beach bum, McGee makes his way to the prosperous town of Fort Courtney, Florida, a respectable, booming, deadly little place.

More entanglements than usual.

Had to re-listen to the reveal because there were so many bad guys caught up in it. Usually, McGee gets himself into more trouble.

The hits just keep on coming

I really wish I had read these books when I was younger! Who knows, I might be a boat bum now! But this is excellent Travis McGee. A really good listen and lot of fun,

Clever mix of white collar and psycho

MacDonald is staying more in Florida but mixing white collar crime with psychopathology. More women die. At least poorly of natural causes. An enjoyable listen.

Predictable but Still Very Worthwhile

A series like this can get very predictable and tiresome. John MacDonald was a rare author that managed to deliver interesting stories even in such a challenging context. McGee and Meyer are interesting characters and I continue to enjoy watching them evolve from one book to the next. This series is the diametric opposite to Stuart Woods' Stone Barrington books, which are mind-numbingly predictable and formulaic. The Travis McGee series is one of the more compelling options in the genre; strong recommendation to start at the beginning and read them all...

Classic Travis McGee

John D. MacDonald does it again. McGee on a knights errand shows his cunning skills and kind heart. I highly recommend The Girl in the Plain Brown Wrapper.

The best Travis McGee novel?

I think this is at one of John D. MacDonald's best Travis McGee novels, and a terrific performance by the narrator.

Seemed to stretch along

This story seemed to progress slowly and not always logical.

The narrator is excellent and really makes the story.

Not my favorite McGee.

Love me my Travis McGee

I read this last in print back when I was in college and it had just come out. Trav receives a letter from a woman he'd known years earlier asking him to find a way to save her older daughter from an apparent self-destructive bent. But little is as it appears once he arrives and meets again the woman he last saw as a bereaved adolescent.

Well written and paced, and the appreciation for what was being done to the woman was way ahead of its time.

Definitely recommended. And Petkoff has definitely made the McGee series his own!

Review

Might be one of his best stories that I’ve read in the series. Definitely a lot more adult content than when it’s been previously shared by Maggie, but enjoyed it nevertheless.
